Unhappy Installed Tokico HP and Neuspeed Sports - HELP

I just installed my Tokico Blues and Neuspeed Sport Springs and I have some problems with the rear. The front looks fine but the rear is more dipped than the front. I have read that people have the problem of the rear being too high but mines is the opposite. I cant even put one figure in the gap. What could be wrong. What is the order of the things that go on the rear strut. Please help me.

Well first off, do you have anything in the trunk? I have one amp (no spare) on eibach prokit and the rear is one finger gap front is 2 finger gap. Second, the tokicos don't handle alot of drop. I think they would be okay for mine, but the neuspeed sport is alot lower. I think the struts you got are only good for 1.5" drop.

my best guess is that you got the coupe springs and you have a sedan but if you don't have a sedan then i have no clue

chrisleecool has a spectacular aura aboutchrisleecool has a spectacular aura about
neuspeed s. should be 1.75F 1.5R and most of the springs usually drop a lot lower than what they state, as for mine, i have tokicoblues with H&R's which is 1.3'' drop, but i only have 1finger gap in the rear and 2 inthe front (with 205/40/17). I think ur drop is about right.

pix would help better tho


and to GEARBOX, tokicos are good for 1.7~1.75" drop not 1.5, but I was a little too scared to go with the maximum drop that tokicos allow, so i went with h&r's

For what its worth, I have had the tokicos and neuspeed sports for more than six months now and have had no problems with them.
