Coilover setup

I've recently installed some coilovers on my e92 but it seems to be sitting to low on the rear even though the adjusters are raised right up to their highest position...

How tight should the spring be when in position, at the moment I can barely even turn the threads without taking the lower bolt out and dropping the arm. Do I need to adjust the raise the rear dampeners?

Can I also check i've put them in the right way. The lower rubber spacer was removed from the arm and replaced with the metal version and then installed. (exactly the same as the way they are layed out below) is this correct?



Cheers for the help guys!

Surely someone must know, there's loads of people with BC and similar coilovers on here!

Sounds to me like your dampers are adjusted too short therefore compressing the spring when at full extension. I'm sure there is a guide on meister's website as to have the rear shocks set up.
