Default Tein S-Tech Question

I just installed the rear s-tech springs on my car. After looking at it, it actually made the car alittle taller. I used the three finger test and the stock springs it was 3 fingers SNUG. Now its 3 fingers really loose. They arent new springs so I figure it doesn't need to "set". I used the stock rubber upper hat and lower rubber piece. What you guys think?

Have you driven it yet?

I ask because when you first set the car down its not going to look lowered.. drive it around and its going to fall right where it should be

I think you installed them wrong. When I got mine installed, the drop was noticeable once we got it off the lift to the ground.
