Eibach Sportlines sit lower in rear

Hey ya'll....

So over the weekend I installed some Koni yellows with Eibach sportlines. I love it! The car handles so much better and I look forward to playing with the damper adjustment.

However, It looks to me like the rear sits a smidge lower than the front. Anyone with the same springs experience the same thing? Know of a cure to fix this?

Its not a huge issue.....I am prolly being nit picky.....but I just thought id get some input here and see if this is something that others have faced.

Cheers!

Yup...they're known for that (just like H&R Super Sports)

Add the TT pads to the top of the rear springs (replacing the OEM pad) and you'll be golden.

thats normal. If you just sit on springs, different corners of the car will sit higher and lower. The only way to prevent this is to get coilovers and adjust each corner to sit exactly how you want. Even then the corner balances will be off.

With a perfect corner balance all four corners wont sit exactly the same height either.
