H&R springs, car not low enough?

[CHnKTSi]

First of all, I did realize that the TSi AWD is pretty high stock. But I have put some H&R springs on the car and everything has been settled. From my understanding, the car should be dropped AT LEAST 1 inch front and back. But as looking at my car, it seems to be like the back is VERY high. Almost like the stock height or higher. What can this be?
I like the way front dropped, looks nice and mean. But the back just kills everything.
But the car handles great. But because of such high rear end, the car still has roll/drag in the back.
Is it normal for TSi AWD with H&R to be like that? or is there something wrong with my car?
I just can't stand the way the car sits. It is killing the beautiful car

It will never look right and, handle correctly until you install proper shocks for your H&R springs. The problem is that the stock shocks are to long for your H&R springs. The reason why your front end went down and, your rear end didn't is because its heavier. Right now as is your front shocks are not doing their job because they are compressed by the weight of the front end. The shorter springs that you installed do not provide support for them to function.

update your profile

but if you really did just add springs to lower the weight, you won't see a real handling improvement. Your shocks will be destroyed soon too.

Oh yea, i forgot to add that shocks have been changed as well.
Sorry for not stating fully.
I have installed AGX.
The handle is good, but for SOME reason, only my car looks really high in the back.
That does not seem normal.

Your problem is that you have the wrong size shocks. AGX shocks that you mentioned are just after market performance shocks. They are stock height but, are better quality than stock shocks. There are many different shocks out there. There are oil shocks, gas shocks, air shocks, hydraulic shocks. Then you have different name brands some good quality some bad. Also there are different size shocks for different applications for lowering cars they make shorter shocks for raising cars or, trucks they make longer shocks. Like i have already mentioned in my previous post the reason why your front end went down but, your rear end didn't is because its heavier. Right now as is your front shocks are compressed by the weight of the front end and, they cant function properly because they don't have the right support from your sorter H&R springs. There are only two thing that can prevent you from lowering your car. One being wrong size springs. Two being wrong size shocks its that simple.
