Problem with KYB struts! Need advice.
I just installed KYB 5-way adjustable struts on my Civic hatchback with the sprint springs I had on my stock struts and everything seemed fine at first. Then I took it out today and after driving 20 miles it began to feel weird, so I got out and checked everything and my car is now 2"'s lower than it was before in the front!(WTF!!!! ) So now it seems as if it has been lowered 4" to 4 1/2"'s and is tucking tires on 205-50-15's and is rubbing like crap!
Is something wrong? Should I send them back?
Should I put the stock struts back on or get some coilovers(I hate coilovers)?
Help, this doesnt seem right! Has anyone else had this problem?

whats wrong with coilovers?
I've got a set of Tein SS and I kinda wish I saved an extra grand for Tein RS with EDFC.

coilovers suck ***! And no matter what kind you get they still ride like ****, and never stay in alignment. Granted some are way better than others, but when not true coilovers; crappy slide on coilovers suck!
BTW I am using AGX's right now! They handled great until the front dropped!
