Default Lowering issues

I just lowered my box with some megan springs off of ebay. They say they lower 2 in but now when I measure it only dropped 1 in. I know it will settle some ( I installed them a few days ago) ,but I would not think an inch. Please give me some hope.

Megan's website says it lowers the car 1.85". All you can do is wait till it settles i guess....

Here's mine on megan's after a few months of having them, they really never got that low and that's why I'll be replacing them this spring.

i got about 1 3/4 in the front and 2+ in the rear, but i've also filled the rear with speakers, i'm sure that has a whole lot ta do with the drop, happy with the ride the megans have and ya can't beat the price. wait about a month and check it again i guess

Ekk! Don't cut the springs, whatever you do. If I was you, I order another set of springs (I have the DF210's) and then put those in the trash. Just my .02.
