First, I agree that Cutlii tend to look low in the back even when the rear springs aren't sagging. The best way to do this is new back springs. Anything else (air shocks, bags, etc) require constant attention since they tend to lose air over time. I'm not, however, a fan of the jacked up look. What I do is get stock height HD rear springs and cut about one full coil off the front springs. This gives me the rake I'm looking for without jacking the rear. Oh, and I usually use BFG 245/60-14 fronts and 255/60-15 or 275/60-15 rears, which helps the rake.
