Default strut problems???

i just installed some new non adj. struts and lowering springs to replace my blown strut w/coilovers. the front quality is great. The rear on the other hand is so unbearably stiff. I would almost rather prefer the shitty old set-up than the new. Any possible reasons???

nope. could it be improper strut install. The back struts are loud and make a lot of noise too.
