Default Rear Suspension Spings to Short!!!!

I have a 93 Accord LX and I had installed some Sprint Springs. When my car is jacked up I can move my springs off of the purch. Is this normal or are the springs to short? The rear ones are the one's that do this.

Please advise

assuming you didn't install them backwards, are you should they're the right springs for your car? i dont think there should be any leeway when the car is jacked up, dont seem right.

When I spoke with Sprint they told me that the part number I had was the part number for my car.

true, but the sprint's are a full length spring, not a sleeve and coil like the GCs and skunk2s.
