Default H&R Sport Springs, does this look right?

I had my H&R Sports and Bilsteins installed today. Ride feels very solid. Just had a question about the rear springs, does this look right?

H&R Sport:

OEM Spring:

I was also shocked (so to speak) to discover that I can fully compress the OEM shocks/struts almost effortlessly. I tried this when the Bilsteins arrived. I couldn't budge them. Were my Monroes actually doing anything?

Default Yes...

Dead coils are part of the design. I just had the exact same setup installed. I went one step further and installed K-MAC concentric bushings in the rear inside control arms to allow for the proper alignment settings to be set.

Default Where did you get the K-MAC concentric bushings ?

I need them bad, my rear alignment is off
