What is the free length of the rear springs? Should be around 9". have a look at the spring and inspect for the coils contacting each other(coil bind). You will see a thin line of missing powder coat between the coils.

The KW rear springs were so low that I didn't even leave my driveway with them. I have dinan rears on now.
The fronts are maxed out adjusted as high as I'm willing to thread the cuff up, half the spring paint is blown off. Definitely some binding when it bottoms. Pathetic that springs correctly identified for my model and given to me directly by KW are so ridiculously soft and undersprung for this car that it can barely be driven without other brands having to fix the problem. If I wanted a slammed car I would have bought bags. I just wanted to be slightly lower on much better dampers..
