I have the same problem as well.
Steeda did offer to send a new set, however I didn't want to pay to have the replacement done again.
I had my steeda springs installed a couple of weeks ago. I like the ride, but they are sitting lower on the back than on the front by 1/4 inch. I don't like that. Were they installed backwards, maybe, or are they still settling?

Yes, backwards!!! Steeda springs sit with a rake, or front dropped more than rear.
It's clearly stated on the spring as to where they go. Get your money back and go somewhere else !!!

Thanks, Steeda Tech, reviewing my pictures now. Sent them measurement pics of all four wheel/fender spaces along with part #s as installed on the front and rear. We'll see what Steeda says... Thanks for response.

You the same guy that reported this a few weeks ago and steeda offered spacers? Something must be going on with their quality control or they changed the design (which I doubt). Rear gap has always been noticeably larger than front for Steeda. Maybe a bad production run or mislabeled springs.
