how long does it take for springs to settle?

ive had my gold line springs in for about 4 days now and the front and rear are the right drop, but the front is very, very stiff and rough when driving. is this normal and it just needs to settle more, or are the springs just not any good? how long do springs (or gold lines) normally take to settle?

eh, neuspeed, eibach and goldline technically dont settle... the bushings may settle however and this takes about 2 days. so thats basically what you get... this is what happens when you lower your car.. you have stiffer springs and you get a rougher ride... think of it this way, you could take corners faster... but ya its also possible that your shocks are blown giving you an even worse ride... best thing would be to get aftermarket shocks whether they're blown or not cause switching springs isn't going to do much
