What do you mean it sits higher on the "shock tower"? Are you saying the spring perch is mounted higher on the shock? Or the perch itself is different from the stock perch?
And why didn't you reuse the stock perch with the bilstein shocks you bought? Thats what you are supposed to do...

You need to wait more than a day man... I remember when I was on stock springs, after my car was on a lift they wouldn't settle all the way for a few days.

I ordered the Eibach Sportlines because they have the lowest possible drop. It wont hit everything because it'll sit nice with the larger shocks, but i have a feeling I'll be bottoming out everywhere.
You are way too hasty, so instead of ordering the proper spring perch, you go and order the worst springs made for these cars? Cancel the order and buy the correct spring perch.
