new struts should not change ride height at all!
How did you install them?
Did you let the a-arm come down? If so the spring moved in the pocket and you need to re-index it.

Well if the spring didn't unseat itself, which it shouldn't if you had a jack under it while you changed out the strut the something is binding up and holding the car up. Like I said B4 struts have NO effect on ride height
Maybe take some pictures ?
