Might want to lower the front rather than lift the rear
Too much fender gap is not fashionable lol

Love the raised rear-ends..Like a girl in High Heels
Yeah, but that doesn't guarantee it's always desirable. Or even a girl? :)

If you can find some moog cargo coils for the rear, you'll do fine. I don't recall the numbers, hopefully others will chime in on which p/n is best for the height you want.

You can also take your current springs up front and cut a half coil off them, reinstall and it should drop you close to an inch or thereabouts up front.
Thank you, random question, but would any spring with the same radius fit I. The spring spot? Providing that it wouldn't look ridiculous. Just curious cuz I have some old springs from an 01 jeep that are kicking around in the shop

Welcome. Sharp ride. You'll need new slightly taller springs in the back if you want to permanently lift the car a little to get that rake you desire. Looks like the front is ok. You can always put new shorter springs in the front to drop the front end, but that's a lot of work compared to the rear springs.

Don't go too high, though. This ain't the 70s again.

I loved the 70s look as a kid. I still do. Slots and shackles forever!!

Nice car, looks pretty clean. Welcome! That’s great car for future mods! Lower the front by 1.5 inches, you will get the stance you want. BMR is a pretty low cost spring. $140 or so?
