Highs n Lows

Well i just installed some used ebiach sportline springs on my 95 civic dx. They were origanlly on a 92 civic hatch. My question is if one side supposed to be lower then the other. After the installation i asked some of my freinds if it is supposed to be this way. They said it was normal cause my shocks need to settle, or its because the gas tank is on that side. For some reason it is usually lower on the driver side and higher on the passenger side. The installation was done by me and a freind. We knew what we were doing and he had done this installation on many other cars befor (same models). Its just lowering springs added to an other wise stock suspension. After that i went and got a re-allignment. Another thing my ride seems to bounce, not a stiff bounce, but a soft saggy one. How can I get rid of this problem. Would new shocks fix that? if so what kind? Thanks for the replys and the help...

YUP, i have the same problem. i guess it's normal. The driver's side is usually lower than the passenger side.

are you riding on stock shocks? if so, then you will need to get a set of performance shocks so the ride will be stiffer.

got a pic?

I got tokico blues with neuspeed sport springs. I got them off the ebay as well, but just make sure when you buy stuff on ebay you get the correct part number. The describtion said they are for 92-00 civic, but when i got them , they are actually for 96-00 civics. so now my rear is higher than the front...sucks. Anyway, i can't remember the exact price, but i think they were around 280 for set of 4 shocks.
