Default Anyone hear a noise after installing aftermarket springs on your CRX?

I installed KYB shocks and Eibach Sportlines in my 91 HF. And when i drive it, i hear clanging noises from my rear suspension when i hit a bump. As if the springs aren't seated properly. Anyone else notice this? If so, is it normal? If not, what can i do to fix it? Do i need to replace the spring rubber mounts perhaps which hold the springs?

Just check if the springs are sitting properly like you said , It happen to me whit my skunk2 springs because they are shorter than stock , so when you drop the car down make sure they are sitting correctly or it will make noise

Actually, i already did that. Twice. It's weird. Maybe it's not the seating but rather the upper rubber mount which holds the upper part of the spring. Are the springs supposed to be attached to the upper rubber mount or not because i think mines are and maybe that's why the bottom part of the spring gets lifted up and down during bumps.
