Yea, you should have something a little larger in the rear. I don't have megans, so I'm not sure, but I'd never seen a rear spring and mount that is that thin.

i guess it's a possibility, but the fronts came assembled from the factory - springs mounted on the shocks. the rears came in a separate box. I gotta get someone with Megan's to chime in

^ then no you have to have it right.

Is the spring seated correctly? (nvm, yes)

You might just need them to settle since they are brand new.

haven't checked this thread lately but have you tried adjusting the shocks? If i'm not mistaken, the shock looks like it has only a little bit of travel until the shocks bottoms out or in other words, you're actually riding on the shocks and not on the spring's, if that makes any sense.
