Help: Uneven drop on a 4dr EK
front passenger side is 2cm (0.75in) higher than front driver side? is this normal or its too much? i dont care about the rear though, i think its even. i know coilovers will solve the culprit but i would just like to know if 0.75in difference from driver to passenger side is normal or tolerable or barely noticeable especially if you're a car enthusiast and a lil OC when it comes to ride height.. lol
i used neuspeed greens and even tried tanabe nf210 before, now im using eibach sportline.
thanks h-t

my neuspeed sports did the same **** front and rear the driver side was noticably lower. My camber was off though so that was probably the culprit. I'll never know because I wrecked the car lol.

yup done with alignment, camber and toe adjustments.. newly replaced suspension parts on all sides..
driver side and passenger side are even before, now passenger side is 0.75in higher.. both sides no bumpstops
we've tried to switch the struts and springs from left to right and it still the same

ive heard things like... driver side is lower since the motor leans on that side.. driving alone.. or even having a full tank of gas.. more gas is on the drivers side.. either way its fairly normal.

basically our cars were meant to be RHD to even the weight out lol or K series I guess helps out if your into that kind of thing. I just always ride with a fat girl in the passenger seat to even it out. She works as a weight transfer in turns, I tell her to lean and whoa!!! I have to countersteer lol

Re: Help: Uneven drop on a 4dr EK
i know having this uneven drop is normal but my question.... again... would be... is 2cm or .75in difference from driver side to passenger side normal? or its too much and needs to fix the problem?

have you read the responses? it seems to be fairly normal on any car with lowering springs, hell my car is the same, but it sure beats stock ride height.
