What do you mean? I dont unterstand this, my english isn't good and google translate don't know "reverse rake"
I'm sorry! It just means the rear end of the car sits higher than the front. My E28 does the same thing for now, gonna get around to evening it out some more eventually.
This is how my car sat when I first installed my lowering springs.
I lowered the perches almost all the way down, but when I fit my wheels I hope to lower them all the way and eliminate it completely and have the car sitting even all around. This is how it sits now.

Ah, ok
My e28 have a 60/40 KAW suspension with short shocks. I will buy a airride, but its not allowed here in Austria :thumbdown:
So, the next step is cut the rear spring for one ring. Because its only my cruising ride. But very illegal here....

So let me get this straight .... .. . RAKE is, and has been for almost 100 years, a way to describe what you call "reverse rake"
so all those raked Muscle cars and hot rods ... with the ass up in the air and the front really low ... that's where the term "reverse rake police" came from?? .. :
Those custom buttlecaps are cool, probably more money than it is worth.
OP, you DO NOT have reverse rake, "reverse rake" is when the rear appears to sit lower than the front which is common on BMW's because of the front fender design. The guy above is confused.
You have just plain old fashioned RAKE lol The rear needs to be another 2 inches lower and you will be golden. Love those wheels too!
