H&R Springs???

[CvicKila02]

Alright i just got done about 4 hours ago in stalling H&R sportline springs and KYB AGX shock. The instal went great only took me about 2.5 hours to do everything. But when i took my car off the jack stands i noticed the ride hight isn't really that much lower. Do i have to wait till the springs break in or is my car going to be always jacked up like a red neck. I can fit about 3 fingers in the back wheel well and 3.5 in the front. I don't get it i'am kinda mad cause everyone who has H&R springs look lower than me. Did i get the red neck edition of the Talon TSi AWD???? Help me out guys, will my car lower iself 1" in time??? like a weke

I have h&r springs on my car. I can send you some pics of it to see if you are lower or higher than me. I can notice my drop. How old are the springs?

 

[CvicKila02]

They are brand new Springs and Struts. I can fit about fingers in the back wheels and 3.5 in the front. Which is weird cause they said on their site that it would lower my car 1.5" in the front and 1" in the back def did more than that tho in the back and the front well looks kinda higher? Could my stiffness that i have the KYB AGX's make a difference?? I have them set and the highest level of firmness 8 in the back 4 in the front.

i wouldn't think that the shock setting would affect ride height. I have H&R's on my 1g and it didn't look any different when i first put them in, it's been about 2 months since i put them in and it seems like i have the claimed 1" drop. i don't really care about the ride height since the handling is simply amazing.

Oh i definatly love the handling now. It feels like it hooks up better when i step on it. No more feeling like your front end is going to lift into the air and you are going to take off into space But yea they seem to be settling down. I just ordered my camber kit from Taboo so my rear tires don't look like this no more /----\

Heres the pic of my car with the H&R Springs and KYB's

Yup thats what mine looks like. But the drop seems weird its suposed to be lower in the front cause H&R said the drop was 1.25" Front and 1" Back. So wouldn't u think the front is lower??? Or maybe its just me but it definatly looks like the front is higher than the back.
