just take it back to the shop after they settle and if they are halfway cool they should adjust them for you....just pay attention next time!...lol
One way to tell: get a tape measure and measure from bottom of the fender lip straight down to the center of each wheel. Write all four measurements down and keep them somewhere. Wait about a month or so and measure again. If they have all dropped some more and it's down too far for you, you will know by how much.

this quote from another thread made my decision:

......My advice - if you want to slam your car to the ground (all the time or for shows) or have the flexibility of changing the dampening from inside the car (EFDC option), get the Teins.
If you want a lifetime warranty, hard but not too harsh handling, low but not tucked/ slammed look get the Bilsteins. I believe they are also significantly less expensive than the Teins by several hundred dollars.....
