Unhappy Suspension Help need.

I have a 2010 c300 sport. I just installed some Fortune 500 coilovers.. But the back coilover is al the way down and I had to customize the rubber boot the spring sits on. The rear is still not at tire level. The front coilovers aren't even half way down and are below tire level. Could I have installed the rear wrong or why aren't they going as low as the front ??? Thanks in advance guys

The rubber boot was super big and although the coilovers were all down the car sat up super high ( stock hight) . The basically cut the boot and got it to drop to tire level. But I feel like something is still wrong. It won't go even close to the same as the front.

not an expert, but sounds like the wrong spring. confirm the rate and height with manufacturer. Do you have any installed pics. Usually very straight forward.
