you sure you placed the springs in exactly as they were?

a couple inches off is a huge difference, you had to place them wrong, or seriously cut them uneven.

Click to expand...

Like he says... if your "pig tails" aren't placed correctly and you cut the springs unevenly, you'll have problems. Also know that springs are built differently and some have "dead coils". It's hard to say what you did to the stock or aftermarket springs...

With all due respect, buy some springs that are designed for a lower drop don't rice the car by doing something you don't understand.
