Rear End Shimmying After 1' Lowere

I installed a set of one-inch lowering springs on my car. Since doing this I have had an alignment and still feel as though when I hit a bump the rear end of the car is propelled in the opposite direction of the bump. This effect appears to be substantially increased with passenger weight. Can anyone help me.
ps. Just found this web site very excited hello all acura enthusiasts!!!

How long after the spring installation was the alignment done? You should have given it about 2 week or so for the springs to settle.
