Eibach Pro-Kit, Break in?

Just installed Eibach Pro-Kit shocks, and KYB Gr-2 along with new ball joints and sway bar end-links. I've talked talked to alot people regaurding suspension, but not sure what to think. Is my suspension gonna break in a drop a little more or is this the ride height I can expect to see for a while? I love it, and the handling over stock is huuuuuge. Just curious, it was a garage time arguement. Thanks guys

If anyone needs any tips on putting that stuff in, I should be able to help it was pretty straight forward, just time consuming.

the springs may settle in a little bit it you didn't get them in the pockets quite perfect. But as for break in, just drive it. And beat on it

I've had mine in for about 4-6 months, and they are just about where they started. They really kick *** compared to the stock stuff. I'm looking into something stiffer, though. And linear instead of progressive rate.
