Default my car is tilted to my driver side.

I have my stock suspension on at the moment and its tilting to the my driverside..
i had my k sports in there before and it did the same thing. what do you guys think is wrong? doesnt look like there is frame damage

same thing happened when i used my aftermarket suspension and they were same height

here are some pictures of it

this is very common. it ususally happens after tightening the lca bolts with the car off the ground and the suspension hanging. the suspension bolts must be tightened with full weight of the car on them.

Definetly looks like your rear LCA is binding. loosen the bolts at the frame and hub with the car on the ground then retighten

even with 3 inch dp a good kit downpipe will not be seen.
