   Check theyre fitted correctly. The bottom and top mounts have a cut out for the spring to sit in a specific orientation relative to the shock absorber. If they are in wrong orientation this could be your problem.
   
   Just check them, if they're fine just wait for them to settle. Over the period of about 2 weeks mine went from about 30mm - 40mm

   yeah there fine, i think. seems to be as low as anyone else with 40mm. and my control arms are pointing just slightly up so i dont think it needs to go any lower. tho it might over the next 2 weeks then lol
