If you're rake is less, you can adjust accordingly. The difference with the same 540lb rear cargo amount between the OEM springs and the Eibach would be 1/4 inch if they had the same starting point. If you add the 0.5 taller starting point of the eibach, you'll be 3/4 higher in the rear with 540lb load, and 1/2" higher empty.
In all the reading and research I've done I have not come across this explanation. Thank you! This makes a lot of sense and now I feel like I have some understanding about the sag vs weight vs coil instead of it seeming like a bit of a mystery. The stock coils seem to be able to handle a pretty loaded cargo area.
