seems like you have the wrong vehicle for the job... seriously. big systems require a vehicle that can physically support them.

you need to be able to put on a stronger suspension system. this is why SUV's are good candidates - something with a truck frame.

you could maybe use air shocks to help hold the rear up, and move to stiffer springs from a vehicle with the same diameter but a longer stock travel.

so many fail answers in here....

assuming you have struts on the rear then contact springworks.com for a set of custom springs.

Ran 12 batts in the trunk of my altima and car sat level and the ride was fine.
