look at the ride height and and the coil-over perch. it doesnt make add up, that car should be close to ride height with the perched placed up that high.

my guess is the spring is defective, but i just want a second opinion

if you think it's a defect, then you should see if you bought the real tein coilovers. There was a post about fake teins being sold to the publics.

other than that, i guess we need more info with your setup.

nope this basic kit was bought about a year ago.

its a basic kit on and for a 92-95 civic coupe...and it has the stock engine.

all im trying to find out is if my theory about the problem being the springs on the coil-over is correct or its something else.

yea i thought that, but the rears are alot softer than the front. when you press on the back it moves, and on the front it barely does.
