driver side is higher than passenger side (coilover install)
hey guys just recently installed coilovers into my car and i made sure fronts where same length as with the rears but for some reason when i dropped the car down and measured from bottom of rim to fender the driver side is 0..5 cm (0.19685 inch) higher than passenger side, would this affect my driving at all and should i be worried or is it ok since its not much difference ?.
In your other thread, did you lower the car and then tighten the pinch bolts? If not, the bushing could be holding the car up as its being twisted tearing at the rubber.
Biggest mistake people make is tightening suspension pinch bolts (non-poly) LCA bushings while the wheels are hanging down. This is BAD!
Get the car on the ground, bounce it a few times and then tighten pinch bolts and/or LCA bushing nut! i.e. while at *NORMAL* ride height. Supporting the weight of the vehicle!

Some will say that's good enough. It is better than leaving them hanging. I would opt for wheels on the ground.
If it were mine, that's what I would do.

This same thing happened to my brother when we put BC Racing coilovers on his Acura TL. Though it was odd, we just simply lowered/raised the locking collars until the matching ride height was obtained.
