    Info on 19.03 springs.. H&R IX/Vert (?) setup on 325e, is that why i have rake?

    After installing my HR OE sport springs, I thought something was "off" about the look of the car. The front seemed noticably lower than the rear which was not what I expected to happen at all. So I found the model numbers of what I had (I bought used).

    H&R 19.03 blue rears
    H&R 50404.55F grey fronts

    I couldn't find them for sale online, to see, but found some FS threads on other forums where they were advertised as IX springs or Vert springs.

    Question is, is that why the car is higher in the rear? Are these springs built expecting a heavier rear weight? If I swap the 19.03 springs for the "normal" ones (50404-55 rear I think) can I expect it to even out? (I'm running bilstein sports btw)

    Unfortunately I don't have a working camera to post a pic of my car but here's the springs

    Vert rear springs are designed to carry more weight and sit higher when put in non-verts.
