I agree with this, a strut with a dedicated spring seat would have not done this unless you installed the spring backwards if that is even possible.

Leads you to the next thing, the perch which is removable. more than likely it's upside down which from the look of it is about an inch in difference, that inch could equate 4 inches of height as the spring sits on it.

Did you get this resolved? I have been thinking of going with the Koni Yellows but I do not want to change my ride height. It is that or going full blown KW-V3's

Yep, had the lower spring perch on upside down, glad to have that sorted out,
ride stance is nice, this is a 2009 touring with 18inch wheels, thanks for the help everyone.
