assuming you bought new, i didn't touch the height settings when i installed it out of the box....

no finger gap at all and slight tuck on the rear..

i set the damping in the middle for a week and set it up to the stiffest after that...

when i got my megans, i didnt adjust them and i was riding slammed. -1 finger gap all around. but i was on 18s. since you are on 19 i think you should be ok.
Good Luck putting them on tomorrow.

I have Megan LP on my ride for almost 2 years. NO problem and no hopping.. Ride great and never complain.. I love it... After I install the LP, I adjust 23 front and 26 rear.. Try it and it doesnt break anything when u adjust the damper..
