    Dont really know too many reasons why, my guess would be if the shocks were designedb for factoey springs rather than lowering springs. I have heard of the mix up before and the car rode high.

      i think springs that changes the height of the car not the shox. correct me if i'm wrong

        The shocks can have a slight effect, I hear depending on the valving. Not that much though.

        Are they brand new?

        Sold it.

          If you JUST installed them, they need time to settle... or if you got some fat friends take them to get a burger ...or two and that should do the trick.

            Is your parking break on after jacking up and lowering the rear end? If you leave it on, it will not allow the suspension to rotate back down.

            Those tires look WAY undersized too. That could be part of it, playing a trick with your eyes.

              small tires, early fender arches = lots of gap

                ^^^ Bingo. Give it time to settle and put the right size rubber on and you should be good to go.
