Default Tociko suspension... problem???

I just had my EK sedan dropped down with a full set of Tociko HP gas shocks and springs. Initially they gave me about a 2" drop all around. I've been driving the car for a couple of days and now when I'm parked on even ground my drivers side back tire is noticeably lower than all the others (nearly under the wheel well) My friend (the one who installed them) insists that it's normal for springs to drop a little bit more after driving because they have to settle in. I've never lowered a car before or heard anything about that happening, so is he right or could this be a problem?

He's right about springs settling, but they would usually settle all together, maybe that one was installed earlier? I know i installed my rears a week apart from my fronts and it looked way off for a while before the fronts settled and the rears already had.

Awesome, thats exactly what happened then. He had the rear ones installed on a project EG hatch but it was just sitting because he had no other suspension to put on it. That explains it, thanks a lot man.
