They said give it a couple of weeks and the front should settle more than the back. ?? For some reason the RR corner is 1/2" lower before and after Eibach install.

Looks good to me! Kinda hard to tell where the OD of the tire is in the photos though.

By the numbers though, 0.12 / 0.13 is about 1/8". I think that amount is hardly noticeable. I bet you can raise the back more than that by stopping hard, setting that parking brakes, then taking your measurements

! Interesting about the 1/2" RR though. I guess you never noticed it until you put calipers on it.

Springs don't settle. It's usually the rubber isolators that take a compression set. The front ones are thicker than the rear ones, so your installer is probably right.
