Is this normal :S (pics inside)

Changed the springs to eibach pros a few weeks ago, car drives spot on, but the top mounts look different.

On full lock;

With wheels straight;

Is this normal? They used to sit completely flat.

Not sure mate, I would think there should be some movement tho.

Someone will be able to say fo sho.

Mine were never like that after changing to pros. They look lose still, if you see what I mean.

They will move around like that on full lock, this is what causes the knocking. I'd say they're normal enough as long as the top mount is seated right and the cars not behaving as it shouldn't I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Yeah that's normal. Got told by a couple of garages.

 

[Russ_16v]

yup, top mounts do this when turning

 

[Coby.]

Thanks for the replies guys.

Should they be raised though when the wheels are straight though? They used to sit flush? Has this got something to do with the slightly lower ride hight of the springs? :S
