leftside is lower than rightside

HI, Just wondering if anyone else out there has this same issue. I don't recall if the car was like this with my oem 18in wheels but after installing my 20's I can definitly see a difference.
Last friday I installed the espelir gt springs and the leftside looks very good, just about a finger gap but the rightside is a bit higher still.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Before I installed the Tein coilovers I measured the distance from the fender to ground,and each corner was different.After I installed the coil overs I made each corner the same height.The height difference may have something to do with load balancing.On race cars they adjust them by load on each wheel not by height.I just wanted mine to look even all the way arond.

probably because we always sit on the left? ... so it ... got lower? or you know... I could be totally wrong.

I have the same problem. I don't think there is a thing we can do about it either. My left side is about 1/2" lower then the right side.

Thats funny!!
I going to have my shop look at it and see if there is something I can do. I just checked and my front right wheel seems okay. pretty even to the left. Just my rear right is higher. I will let you guys know if I figure a way to fix this.

I'm not sure on the physics behind it, but its done to improve handling. Its not just your cars, leave it alone.

You may need camber adjustments. Your wheel on one side may be sitting at a different angle than the right ones. Same issue for me after my Tein S-Techs went in last week - after initial alignment - all was perfect.

I went to see my buddy at the infiniti dealership, I went origionaly to fix a rub, well we fixed the rub, but then noticed the right side sat higher than the left. We tried parking it in different places around the lot and it always looked like the right was higher. We tried to figure out what could be causing it, but after about an hour we came up with nothing. It is not a really bad difference but it is noticable.
