Lower in the rear

Ok here we go and yes I have searched it im just looking for opinions / remedies here. . .

I have had a G35 and now mt G37 (which has been lowered for a few months now) I am wondering why it is that with Tein Springs (which I love the way they ride) the Nissan/Infiniti cars always appear significantly lower in the rear then the front? My side skirt is even from the floor on both sides in the front and the rear but the rear wheel wells being small (i assume) causes the rears to appear slammed while the front is not, and once an average person sits in the car its even worse. . . At a stand still with nobody in the car it looks odd but I can deal with it but if you put a person in the car it looks like I filled my trunk with iron!!!

Shocks/Struts are new
Springs are new S-Techs
It only does it on the Nissan/Infiniti cars I have owned on all my Hondas and Acuras etc etc it looks perfect, is there a way to fix this or just buy coilovers or other springs only?

Welcome to the wonderful works of Nissan front wheel gap. Almost all of their car's ate designed that way. Take a closer look at most any OEM Nissan stance and you'll notice more front wheel gap than rear.

The question is why do the makers of aftermarket springs not address this by dripping the front more than the rear.
