Did you get an alignment done after lowering? You may also need a rear camber kit

Sorry, I think this is my friends acct, but oh well. From my experiences with dropping, usually the fronts will camber in if you drop more than 1.5" and rears 1.75 generally speaking. Not exactly sure how the TL suspension is, but in Civics and Accords, the rear suspension can be fixed by washers on the upper control arms where they mount to the body. Not the best solution, but cheaper than buying a shortened lower A arm.... =)

Like 69tl mentioned, the suspension cambers (positive) during it's travel.

I just noticed Tim has Comptech Camber adjustors for the rear right on this site. They will allow you to adjust the camber. If I were you, I would definately look into camber adjustors.

Did you get H&R Sport springs?
