Eibach Pro-kit update.
So, after cutting a half a coil off each rear spring the height did come down a little and looks acceptable when viewing the car from the left. The right side of the car, both front and rear is higher than the left side. I measured all four corners from the top of the tire to the bottom of the fender lip and these are the gap measurements:
Left front= 7/8"
Left rear= 1 1/4"
Right front= 1 1/4"
Right rear= 1 3/4"
What the heck?
Left front= 7/8"
Left rear= 1 1/4"
Right front= 1 1/4"
Right rear= 1 3/4"
What the heck?

More to the point, what are the measurements with your, umm, personage in the car?

Well, I don't know that yet, but I did have my wife sit on the right rear corner of the car (insert joke here)and the suspension dropped about 1/4 of an inch in back, but didn't affect the front suspension at all. I am convinced that these springs are not correct. In four different cars this is the first time this has happened. And I doubt if I have any recourse.

You might talk to the guy you got the kit from and get a set of springs only.
Tell him your problem and even though you've cut the springs you might get some rhythm/get them at cost.
It sounds like your rear springs are the problem so just replace those?
Or complain about all of them, the inconsistent ride heights right to left, etc., and replace all four springs.
