There is more leverage in that picture and the front is lifting a lot. Mine is sitting much lower in terms of the tires penetration into the wheel well. My alignment is visually off because of the load and I can only imagine how abysmal a readout would be. Bumps are terrible as I can feel the car bottoming out.
How much weight in that picture and what are the car specs? Also, springs do wear with time so an older car will obviously perform worse.
I've had this problem since the beginning and I am on my 3rd dampers, 4th springs, 2nd subframe and 3rd subframe bushings. I have about 75K and have only used the car on one long haul trip where I weighed the contents upon removal from the car and was well under the load limits. My car body has been checked to be true and there are no accidents.
