RB spring binding (?) [pictures]
I completed installing my front springs and shocks yesterday (RB & Koni) and noticed today that the top end of the spring is compressed onto itself a bit, I wasn't sure if this is how it should look; is this normal? ![Sweatdrop](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/sweatdrop.gif)
The rest of the spring looks fine as far as I can tell and I haven't noticed any issues in ride feel.![Dunno](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/dunno.gif)

I have a 07 80000 miles I have drove the **** out of it canyon racing. I've enjoyd this car and felt really safe recently I changed my rims sport max 18 9 1/2 all around. 225 in the front and 275 in the back. Megan racing suspension I've had it for 2 years. Recently. I hit a curb cracked my old rims. That's why I got the new rims. Got re allinged. When I'm driving on the free way when I'm going over 80 the car sways. I have to fight the steering wheel its very wobbly. It feels really unwavering any bump on the road at high speeds moves the car it changes directions I got it alingement done. Tire pressure is good. What's the problem I want my 8 to go back to normal. Bushings maybe ?
