Default Koni/Eibach Combo Installed - Rear is slammed ?

All,
Got the Koni/Eibach combo installed with stock size Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires on the car (2005 Limited Roadster). Also went with recommended pad sizes 5 dot (21 mm) front, 1 dot (5mm) rear. The drop in front was pretty much what I anticipated approx .5 inch - no problem. The rear is slammed !!!! With a full bag of gas there's approx. an inch/plus of clearance between the fender and tire tread. YIKES !!!!! What during the install could've caused so dramatic a drop ???? What should be checked to correct ? Anticipated approx 1.5 inch drop off the stock 4 inch gap, this is insane !! Getting front/rear alignments done tomorrow and would like to advise shop. Incorrect spring seating ? HELP !!!
