Default uneven lowering = neuspeed race springs + tociko blues?

Topic says it all. I just had this set up installed about two weeks ago, and when it was done, everything checked out (even drop all around). Just last night, I was looking at my car and noticed that the right rear section seems higher off of the ground. I moved my car over to level ground and noticed the same thing. The increased height is only about 1 to 1.5 cm, but it is a bit noticable. The car rides beautifully, with no other suspension problems. What could be wrong? If it seems okay mechanically, then perhaps I shouldn't worry about it, eh?

there is a 150-200lb? weight difference whenever your car is driven......ITS YOU. most places i know look at the springs and put the ones that are the tallest on the drivers side to acount for the drivers weight. sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt, its probablye caused because you dont always have a passenger to even things out. I have the same springs and shocks and REALLY LIKE them,but they are getting old and soft, time for some new ****.

That's crazy..........I have the EXACT same setup with the EXACT same issue. Small world!!

I do think it's because I mostly ride around with just my fat **** though. It's pretty damn annoying to me.

I don't know what to do about it. I'm prolly just gonna redo the back suspension this weekend and see if that helps.
