Ride Height
Has anyone ever measured their ride height? Fender to ground?
Is front supposed to be slightly lower than the back? I never noticed it until I lowered my car with Eibach and KYB and now the rear end looks higher than the front.

HA ha ha that doesn't sound good If I didn;t have an additional spring perch on the Bilstein's the gap in the rear would be equal to yours though.

Two settings on Bilstein HD's?
I have the Bilstein HD shocks or struts along with H&R sport springs (1 in. lower). Where is this additional spring perch on the HD's?

Correct me if im wrong but just about all vehicles ride higher in the rear. This most likely due to adding passengers and what ever you want to fill your trunk with. With the trucks I've owned all my drop kits came as 2/3, 3/4 4/5 (inches of drop front/back) and this will even out the vehicle.
So I would say in dialing in your suspension with your shock kits and there being 2 or 3settings ,as i read on some threads, you would probably set it to the highest setting in the front and lowest in the back to get that uniform look in the wells. Or least amount of drop setting front and most rear, which ever terminology one prefers.
