Default Lowering Springs problem

Okay guys, i have a set of eibach sportline lowering springs on one of my integras..well the back is lowered pretty good but the front is really high, like stock height if not, higher even. I was wondering do they need time to weaken and settle down, or are they just designed for the front to be higher than the rear?

u sure u didnt mix the springs? front and rear? i heard of lot of people doing that...putting front springs in the rear, and vice versa...i think the rears are suppose to be lower.

i have sportlines and the springs in the front are higher than the rear. if you look at your car it should look straight according the the side moldings or body lines. i hate it too. your not alone.

the front should be a bit lower than stock though. it might need to settle. bought mine used.

I believe it's how the wheel lines are cut or something like that. If you look at the sideskirt, it'll be even to the ground. But the rear will look lower cause the 'wheel' line is cut lower than the front.

Something like that.

Is the perch height on your shocks adjustable?
