Get a ruler and measure the coils from the adjustable part. Or, count the number of rings on your coil from the adjustable part and even them out.

who installed the coilovers? they should be responsible for correcting your problem, esp if you cannot even drive the car!

I got my coilovers installed by evassive motorsports, it took approx 3 hours to be completed installed on my car. It was near closing time so they couldnt do the adjustment. Straight out the box with no adjustments my car is only like 2 inches of the ground and rear wheels tucked in deep. It is a issue driving around cus I'll scraped against small bumps, railroads and driveways. But I have given them a call and they said they would adjust it for me. So I am looking forward to finally get my ride height adjusted.

Thanks for helping out everyone.

How were you able to drive home?

Do you have a jack and jackstand? Lift up your car and adjust them.

That's pretty poor service on Evasive's part... Just because it was closing time doesn't mean they can't complete the job (especially with 3 hours). What would've happened if you would've cracked your bumper driving?

Sounds kinda whack that they let you leave without making it right.
