Default Car sits un-even

Not sure if I posted this in the right section, but oh well. Anyways, my car is lowered with eibach pro kit, and basically brand new autozone shocks in the front ( all that money can buy right now ). Well, even before i lowered the car it had sat a little un even, the passenger side being about 1/4" lower than the drivers side. I thought changing the shocks and springs would have helped, but its only just as obvious now. I'm not sure what else I can do to try and fix it, anybody know?

do you have the pro-kit? did you take the rear isolators out? some pro kits sag. others dont. I think you read the post BlackTA98 LS1 made wrong. he said his driver side is higher that the passenger side, this is a different problem than yours

Mine did the same thing, we installed an air bag in the right rear and pumped it up to about 10-12 lbs. , it helped...didnt cure it though.
