Rx8 SUSPENSION EXPERT IN NYC???

Does anyone know of a great suspension specialist in NYC are who knows our car?? I desperately need one. I'm 16 years in with my original car. 2005 AT. I've had the rear suspension worked on a number of time including not long before the pandemic. I had all new springs and struts installed and the thing STILL sits about an inch lower than the front. And when I drive over certain types of bumps or dips in the road, it "feels/Sounds" like it's bottoming out in the rear. There is always a loud bang and bone jarring hard stop in the body travel. The sounds seems to be coming more from each wheel well then from the center of the car. This is driving me crazy and my dealer keeps telling me everything is installed correctly and set properly. PLEASE?? IM open to ideas and suggestion but mostly would like the opinion of a suspension specialist who has SEEN my car and driven it. I appreciate all comers. Thanks.

If it's crashing over bumps, the one thing that may not have been replaced is the bumpstops. Sitting low is a separate matter, but I'd start there to make sure the suspension actually has all of its parts.

Thanks. I'll have that looked at. That's what was the problem when i installed the Bilsteins. I think the NYC streets blew them out because when I took them off the car they were destroyed.
