They made my car sit way low in the back, too. I had Bilsteins so I was able to adjust the spring plate to the highest position to make it closer to a factory rake differential.

It is strange, in my opinion, that Eibach chooses to make the E28 sit this low in the rear. You would think they would design a spring to lower the car evenly fron and rear. All springs settle over time (OEM practically don't) and like it or not the car WILL sit lower in the future. Mine, as I told you before you purchased the springs, started making all kinds of coil-banging racket after approx 9K miles. I bought them from Bav Auto, who gave me full credit when I couldn't take it any more. I now have their springs and all has been well for 5K miles. I hope you have beter luck with yours :)
