How long do new springs take to settle?

Recently installed Techart springs and the car has not been driven since (gargaged). Do new springs truly settle lower or is that a myth? Granted I haven't driven the car at all it looks to be the same height as when I brought it home from having the work done.

Will the car drop any lower? If so, how long does it usually take? I assume the time is measured in miles, perhaps not. If it doesn't drop any further I'm fine with that given the large improvement from the stock ride height (and i'm scraping on just about every curb/driveway).

Thanks.

I would think a couple of months of driving and using. Thats my opinion but you know opinions are like a$$ holes and everyone has one. BTW Lucent did a great job.

Did you sign up for the 3 year payment plan at Lucent? I did and I get parts all the time in the mail.
