Tire pressure too high? Check that first since its free.
Could be bad struts but you would really be bottoming out rather than lauunching. I used to experience same thing dropped 3" on GC coilovers since there was no suspenesion travel, the car takes the bump not the suspension. |

its called a torsion beam, inherent flawof the rear suspension bouncing laterally instead of just vertically, the rear sway bar alleviates this problem from my understanding |
