car feels like it wants slide
I just recently did the h&r sport lower springs....I just picked up my car yesterday from the shop. They said give it a few days to settle, as I'm driving the car the backend is sliding almost as if im about to lose control and this is at regular speed....I don't think this is normal...Can anyone offer any advice what this could be

Alignment needs to be done. Specs are off probably. Tire pressure... make sure you check that. Does the car actually slide or kick out? Plenty of guys here who's done the H&R install but no one has ever posted any issues that you seem to be having?

Sounds like something is lose in your suspension set up. Go back to the shop where you got it installed and have them recheck everything.

The only thing I can think of with the kicking out is what I experienced when I had the rear tire go flat. The whole back end just slid to the right when my rear tire went flat.

I recently had this feeling on mine too when my tire only had 25psi.
+1 on check the tires psi and tread.

Also, you may have directional tires and if they swapped them from side to side, they're rotating the wrong way.

FWIW, on an entirely different car when I installed Eiback Prokit springs and Koni adjustable shocks, it resulted in toe out on the back end. The car was as the OP describes. The rear end was all over the place, and the car was basically undrivable above about 45mph as I took it to get aligned. I stuck to the side roads and took my time getting there.
