leveling my ride Ive got a 2001 Trans AM WS6, ive got 18x9F and 18x10R, i recently lowered my car with eibach sportline springs and new shocks. Yes the ride is rough, but the stance is perfect. The only problem is the passenger side sits a little lower then the driver side. Not much, about a finger width differance, but that matters cause over some bumbs etc.. it rubs or even slams hard. After installing the 1st set i ordered a new set thinking the 1st was defective. The 2nd set was a little better but still have the slight lean. Im not sure if the bump stops are bad(uneven etc..) or what. Can i use adjustable coil overs to compensate for the slight differance? What should i do? Please help.

I thought that was why, but even with me in the driver's seat and someone else in the seat behind me (no one else in the car) it still sits lower on the passenger's side. Is there no way to adjust this?

I would think it would have a bearing at all on ride height unless it was severely bent and even then I am not sure it would effect the ride height.
Have you tried moving the springs side to side to see if the problem follows the springs?
The recommendation of using heater hose is a good one. I have used it many times to get cars to set perfectly the way I wanted and it's inexpensive too !!
