i installed my t1r coils the other day and i've noticed that the passenger side sits about 1cm higher than the driver's side. i was wondering if this problem would eventually go away or if there is a fix.

my alignment is also off so im going to get that looked at in a week or two.


EDIT: i measured each side after about a week.

this is on flat ground, fender to ground.

Driver Front: 23-3/8"
Passenger Front: 23-6/8"

Driver Rear: 24-2/8"
Passenger Rear: 24-4/8"

 

Give it a few days to settle or check if you have seated the springs properly.
Mine still sits a bit higher on the rear right after a year though.

 

it won't be perfectly even with springs, 1 cm difference is pretty good. might change as they seat in right after you go for a short drive, or after they sag a little eventually.

you meant t1r springs, not coilovers right? it wouldn't make sense if you're talking about coilovers i guess.

 

Yeah, s coil springs

found out I had a nail on the passenger side tire and the tpms light went on. Going to patch it and inflate all the tires. Let it sit for a month and if that doesnt solve the problem, ill try switching the front springs out with each other.

last case scenerio might include a hacksaw.

 

keep in mind that the driver side is gonna have more weight biased, which could be the difference between that 1cm. all the steering parts are on the driverside, so more weight.

 

This makes sense. I have an a/t as well so im sure that has something to do with it too.

I guess I gotta suck it up and... get a fat girl or coilovers.

 

hahah nice

 

just measured

Driver Front: 23-3/8"
Passenger Front: 23-6/8"

Driver Rear: 24-2/8"
Passenger Rear: 24-4/8"

has anyone cut 1/4 of a coil?

 

i've heard of people putting heavy things in the passenger seat overnight to balance the height? a punching bag would be perfect

 

i've had this problem on all the cars i have owned.. i thought it was normal.. or perhaps i just weighed too much haha

i guess i'll be doing coilovers again to fix this problem
