Default 4th gen wagon lowering question

So my wagon is as dumped as it can get right now on coilovers, the front tucks hard and the crossmember is all but sitting on the ground (3" of clearance to the ground).

The problem is the back end still sits at a rake...I have removed the bump stops completely, cranked the coilovers as far down as they can go without removing them completely, and still it sits at a much higher level than the front end

I have seen 4th gen sedans and coupes tuck all the way aroundd but is there a difference between the wagons and other models that prevents me from doing the same?

Before you say its stupid I am doing it just to see how low the car can honestly get....bags for it are coming just for kicks

if anything the rear should be more dumped than the front cuz the front fender well is larger......have no clue...maybe its hitting the upper control arm....

Yeah I checked and its not hitting the arms but I am also going to try a set of cut coils on the coilovers and see if it allows it to go any lower.
