Eibach Sportline gap...???

I just finished installing my Sportlines and the front seem fine, about two fingers between tires and fenderwell BUT the rears sit only like a half inch lower than stock (lil more than 3 fingers)...??? Is this normal or do the springs have to settle or what???

driving it around for a few days will help settle it, than when you get the camber kit on and alignment you will have to drive it around again for it to settle...at least i did

Is this a new concept? It is plastered all over this site. Yes it takes time to settle, especially the rear because there is no weight. You need at least a week, probably two before you should get an alignment.

Yes I know it is, but sometimes it just helps to hear that my/their particular situation is okay...
