Your typing is giving me a hernia. Please turn off caps and try for some grammar.

Now, with properly installed springs and struts, this shouldn't be happening. Like others said, the springs aren't to blame - it's the struts. Just know that the cartridges, which are a shock insert, ONLY work for the front, NOT the rear. Maybe you messed up there, as KYB only makes a full strut assembly for the rear.

Lastly, what are your driving habits? You didn't mention when the springs compress fully. If you're going over a speed bump at considerable speed, then they could compress like this, although it's still unlikely.
