Eibach spring Help needed
Ok I put Eibachs and Tokico's on my car yesterday and have driven about 25 miles and the rear seems to sit alot lower than the front on both sides. The back of the car I can get about 1 finger between the tire and the fender lip and the front I can get about three fingers between the tire and the fender lip. The car just looks like its sagging now. Not sure if this is normal any help?

I've always had less gap in rear than front. Is the rear actually sitting lower? Measure from level groud to the car. Might be an illusion since the car sits lower and the gaps are more noticeable now.

My springs and shocks are stock and the rear looks lower than the front. The gap from the rear fender to the tire is the same all around whereas the front tire has a larger gap up on top than the sides.
I found two springs that were not all the way seated all the way and turned them in to position and double checked everything else and it all seems to be good. I have about 60 miles or so on it now and I have a squeking coming from the rear that was never there before. I am wondering what that could be tighter shock bushings maybe? I just hear it over bumps and I don't think anything is loose plus it sounds like it comes from both sides at different times. Here is a link to the pics of the car with the springs taken today.

When I first got my Eibach's I had a 1 finger gap in the rear and 2 finger gap in the front..With that info in mind, i don't think that your car is sitting like it should....
Got no idea whats wrong with it tho...Good luck...
