OP, do you have the iso in on any of the corners or are they all out??? And adam03gt, you wont be too low with any of the big name lowering springs. Even the H&R's without iso's shouldnt be too low.
He has ISOs in at all four corners. I think H&R SS look best with ISOs taken out of the front only.
Looks good OP. They'll settle a bit.

I have to believe your shocks and struts are the issue. Personally, I don't think the springs are stiff enough.

"Bottoming out" is REALLY BAD and is not the same as scraping.
I have SS with 1 iso front and rear and I have to literally crawl over speed bumps and angle into driveways to keep my cats in 1 piece, but my stance makes it sooooooooo worth it.

Depends what going "too low" means to you. Usually it means FUBARing the front suspension geometry unless other parts are use to correct it. Or it could mean that you've almost eliminated shock travel. It could mean that you lay frame over anything bigger than a pebble.....
Run SS with no isos and you WILL high center the car on medium to large sized speed bumps.

You aren't "bottoming out", you're scraping.
No isos? Are you sure? Looks like both are in to me....
From what I've seen, very rarely do these cars sit perfectly even. Are you sure the springs are clocked correctly? People have a tendency to place the rears in wrong....the pig tail at the bottom of the spring should point toward the drivers side.
