Default Lowering problems

i had a 94 sedan lowered on neuspeed races and stock shocks w/ ls mesh wheels. Well the shocks were blown and he car sat really low (no finger gap). I replaced the shocks with 94+ gsr's just until i get my agx's, and now not only its the car sitting lower, but it is rubbing metal on the top rear of the fender well and eating my tire. Are the integra shocks smaller than the civics? The metal bumpstop ring is in, however the rubber bumpstop was removed by the previous owner. I owned a sedan previously lowered on neuspeed races and it did notsit this low. Any help would be appreciated.

im sure the gsr's are the same then the civic's maybe a bit stronger since a gsr is heavier, but u have to remember that springs have to breakin and when it does the car get a bit lower, just go get ur new shocks ASAP, if the tire is hitting the metal then after a while it will start to rust, get ut new shocks and get the metal sanded, primered, and spray painted before it gets worse
