Default Different coil springs to go lower in rear?

I currently have eibach pro street s coilovers, but they won't allow me to go any lower in the rear. I was wondering if i could just buy different coil springs and allow for me to be lower in the back. Buying new coilovers is not an option for me right now. Could someone chime in please?

yepp, if your talking about the rubber springmounts they were off awhile ago, my springmounts are metal. They are adjustable aswell. But im currently maxed out and it's not low enough for the look im trying to achieve.

when you raise the rear of the car completely off of the ground, how much tension is on the spring?

posting up some pics of your suspension would help. are the springs pyramid shaped, are they consitently shaped, what are the dimensions of the springs?
