I need some help. Last night I put my new wheels on, and now my car is lower on the driver's side than the passenger's side after jacking the car. Anyone know how to fix this? You can tell when you stand behiond the car that it's leaning to one side, plus i measured the wheel gap on both sides, and there is a difference.

Hmm...know when I installed my coilovers, dampeners were pumped up or something like that.
Drove on them for a bit. Bumps helped settle them down.
How much off in wheelwells?
Mine stock everything were not perfect as far as space went and with drop, was off only a small amount.

Stock suspension dampers can get pumped up or whatever, like aftermarket dampeners can. Thats why I mentioned my situation.
All I can suggest is to take your G out on another run, longer this time and drive on road with bumps, dips, etc. Then things should settle out back to stock stance and clearance.

Thanks for the help. I'm not much of a suspension guy. The handling doesn't feel any different, it just looks kinda wierd though since the car's leaning slightly to one side. I'm gonna be getting a drop though soon.

thats odd if you're on a stock suspension.
i was having the same issue but i have hks rs and the suspension settings seemed off.
i suggest you check tire pressures. if not that, go somewhere where you know the ground to be perfectly level.
