Default Gas Tank?

Is our gas tank evenly spread out? When I was messign with my coils it seems like the left rear has more weight on it.. Only thing I can think of is the tank.. but I figure it should be equal?

the extra weight on the left side could be from the steering colum, cluster and power steering and stuff

were referring to the rear left... the front left seemed balanced with the front right on my coils.. the space between lower brackt and lower spring seat is like twice the distance of the rear left.. and the struts are at the same heights.

I've heard that integra in the rear the left side is always heavier then the right. look at the numbers when people cornerweight their cars.
