Mine were the same way....about 2 weeks after the install, all is well.
It sits about even....although sometimes I wish the front was a little lower....

h&r race springs have a really big tendency to do that. They are always a bit higher in the front..I had the same springs on my 02 GTI and the front sat higher. I asked around people said it is an even drop, even though the front may look higher but mechanically it is an even drop.

General consensus says wait about 2 weeks before you complain about your drop...

Some springs take awhile to settle.

Did you put the iso's in? or leave them out?

If it doesn't settle over a few weeks, just take one or both of the isolators out of the front. It'll sit perfect. I had my lower iso out of my front springs for years and never had any problems.
