Default lowering question?

i finally just lowered my car with tokico and espelir set up...my question is i noticed that my driver side is actually lower then my passenger side. im pretty sure it was like that before i got it lowered. has anyone else had this problem? my driver side rubs a little bit and im pretty sure im going to roll the quarters. i also noticed people say that it takes a while for your springs to settle in but mine are pretty slammed already i can barely fit a finger in the front fender to the tire. does that mean its going to lower more? cuz i dont see how it can get lower.

More than likely it will settle a little more. Every spring and car is different. Get a GOOD alignment and you should be fine. Hopefully it will NOT eat your tires up quicker, but most people on here dont worry about eating tires, as long as the SC looks good. Good luck and keep us posted.

My boss has this problem with his Porsche, and he keeps bugging me about it. So an alignment should fix the un-eveness?
