Takes at least 3 weeks to fully settle. At least that's what happened with my car when i installed the springs.

IMO, it was just slightly stiffer. But ride is still fairly smooth. Don't think it'll soften up too much for you after settling, so if you don't like it now, change back to your sports suspension.

Are you using the 350 Eibachs or 250?

Was on non-sport suspension & now on the Eibach's (350 version) for 3 weeks. The ride's mos def stiffer BUT not to the point it's annoying. Getting an alignment tomorrow to be on the safe side even though the only adjustment's the toe.
