Pics of my Car on Sportlines a week after install
I installed the Sportlines, tokico shocks, Steeda bumpsteer kit, and steeda sway bay installed last Saturday. Initially there wasn't a significant drop and after a week it still looks the same 
. Oh well i figured this would be an excellent excuse to post pics of my baby

That doesn't look right, are you sure they are Sportlines? Have you called Eibach, maybe they put the wrong springs in the shipment? Every car with Sportlines that I have seen is slammed, with the tires about even with the top fender lip.

Maybe those tokico shocks n struts aren't letting it settle, I had tokico on a 01 gt and it rendered my springs useless, I swapped out with some spare Monroe struts and shocks I had laying around. It did the trick

Dont worry, it'll settle out. It took a couple weeks for mine to, with my Tokico D-specs. Speed bumps, or better yet speed humps, might be a little easier on your suspension than train tracks.

Dang... I saw the title and reallllllly wanted to see a slammed car - especially yours. I'm sure it'll settle. You've got too good of a setup for it to not come out well (I hope)

Alright! Got a new set of sport lines put on today! The shop gave me a free replacement! I guess the first set did not come with bump stops so he used the stock ones that's why it didn't drop as much as I wanted. The new springs are awesome and drop the car just as I originally wanted! Will post pics soon

Currently a Corvette Owner!
Glad you got it worked out. Sounds like they shipped you the incorrect springs originally. Sadly, same thing happened to me last year.
