Tanabe springs lowered more on left than right?

About a month and a half ago (~2500 miles), I installed Tanabe GF210 springs with Tokico blue struts. Both of these items were brand new. The driver side is (in my eyes) noticeably lower than the passenger side. As for the fronts, on the LF there is a 1 finger gap, the RF has a 1.5 finger gap. In the rears, there is a 1.5 finger gap on the LR and a solid 2 finger gap on the RR.

What is the deal here? Do these springs just suck or did they just settle faster on the driver side because there is just me in the car most often?

On a side note, this strut/spring combo is awesome for ride quality and handling.

Jeff

I had Tein H-techs on my TSX and I never noticed anything like that. This is noticeable and I don't like it. I'm thinking of going to the Tein S-techs.
