Hey guys, i just realised that after fitting my coilovers the car is lower more on one side than it is the other?, i checked all the adjustments using a verna-dial to make sure all was good, and double checked everything, yet one side is slightly lower than the othe(from looking at tyre to guard clearance)

i have yet to do an alignmetn, which i think may fix this problem, maybe some had more camber affecting one side more than the other???causing it to look lower???

Is this a common things to happen? i dont want to be adjusting the coilover height individually just to make the car look right, as im sure they should be identical for the fronts/rear as a pair...

On the coilovers, are the heights set to the same height? Just check if the height nuts (not sure what they're actually called, but the I'm talking about the nut which you turn to adjust height) are at the same position on the thread each side. Wouldn't be surprised if the previous owners and a little play around with the settings.

How bad is the height difference?

What are the centre of wheel to guard measurements on all 4 corners?

For guys reading this thread, not picking on the poster of this particular one. If you have a question about too low, too high or anything to do with the height of your car, then please get your tape measure out and tell us the height. Centre of wheel to guard is the suspension industry standard, that way tyre wear, inflation pressure and rim size doesn't affect the numbers.

Cheers
