It's been 12 days since the install and the front has settled down about a 1/2". Last time I installed springs into a vehicle, all of the settling occurred overnight. This time it took a week. Whatevs.

In retrospect these probably are the correct springs and I can see why people don't like them. The rate could be higher and I do think the ride height is still about 1/2" above every other S197 I see on the road.

You did the Eibach Pros on all four corners?

Yes I did put Eibach pro's on all 4 corners

initially the drop was about 7/8" but within about 100 miles of driving they settled in at 1.125" on all four corners and are still at that now.

I know the PP springs do not make the car sit higher than non PP springs, I have a set of those as well from a non PP car sitting here, same free length- friends car I helped install the springs on- his car sits the same height as mine despite having 18" wheel/tire vs my 19" wheel/tire combo
