Default silicone sleeve

just lowerd my car with H&R sports.
the back is perfect height but the front is sitting high.
the problem is when i hit a sharp bump, i get clunking from the back.
i read on here that wrapping the lower coils of the spring help prevent the clunking.
i was just wondering where i would find this silicone sleeve
thanks for all your help
and would anyone know why my front is sitting so high?
thanks again

Try Lowe's they should have something like that. Ot you could use some thin rubber pieces to see if that works.
