How long for springs to settle ?



I just fitted my Eibach Sportlines today that i received from K Tec :)

Anyone know how long it'll take for them to settle and if they'll drop much more in the next few weeks ?

P.s I was suprised how easy it was to do rear ones :)

Will get pics up soon.

Just need wheel alignment done now

Fred fitted mine, advised me to leave it about a month before getting alignment done, make sure they're fully settled.

Does this really mean your a bit disappointed with the drop?? ;)

Eibachs dont lower that much from stock. Very good springs tho

No no i'm happy with them, the car seems a bit lower and handles tighter with less roll if you know what i mean :)

But the ride has got bumpier, but hey thats what happen when you lower a car, you sacrifice a bit of comfort.

mine hardly dropped for afew days, threw a bag of coal in the boot and have been driving round for a week now with it in, took it out today for a look and its stayed very very low!!
most people i know throw a bag of coal or a breeze block in the boot after lowering their cars

I thought they'd just return to predetermend spring height after the removal of the weight :S
