How much do springs settle?

Sorry, no pics until this weekend.

I just had the Eibach PK installed and I think I have the droopy butt. Will the front springs settle and even out the gaps? The rears are tucked in but the fronts have a very small gap between the tires and the wheel well.

The ride however is difficult to tell from stock but with better road feel. I was expecting to be jostled but the car drove great. I have already scraped on some steep drives even after taking my time and approaching at an angle.

Most of the times front can look higher cause of the fender. It's not exactly the same as the rear fenders.

Or usually springs should settle in a week or less...

well the rears sit lower than the fronts (or so it seems because of the fenders) even on oem springs, so it's normal. people just tend to notice it more after they put on aftermarket springs because the fender gets so much closer to the tire.
