Can i get some help here?
Can i get some help here? So today i got around to putting on my new wheels (just the fronts, since i only have the tires for them). Just looking to see how they would look on the car, and after driving it around. I park at the car wash and start looking at it from all sides. That's when i started to notice that my Passengerside Rear sits lower then my Driverside rear. I did a quick measurement using my fingers just to see if i notice a difference and sure enough, it does sit lower on that side.
So my question is, why is it like that? What causes that? And how do i go about get the rear to sit evenly with eachother (as close as possible).
And another thing, after the Strano/Koni install. The front of the car sits higher then the rear does, its been a few months since the install and it hasnt changed. Figured the front may settle some more but if it did. It was a slight difference. The main question here would be is, why is the front sitting higher then the rear? I had a shop install them for me, as i didnt have the time to do it myself. So just for the sake of it, but could you actually get the springs mixed up and had the fronts put in the rear and the rears in the front? Ive given it time and put miles on the car since then and nothing. Im really starting to get dissappointed with this setup.

On the koni yellow shocks there is a 2 grooves for the metal clip for height adjustment, my car sat higher in the front for a few months then I read the description of the shocks and it says they are adjustable, so I found if you recompress the spring and move the clip to the lower slot the car lowered to the correct height. My shocks came out of the box in the higher position.

If the front springs weren't seated correctly in the rubber isolater in the spring cup, then they might sit a little higher.
