Default RS-R Down Springs Height Difference...Anyone Getting This???

Hey guys. So I have a height issue with my down springs. The right side of my car is about 2 to 3/8's higher then the left. I am running 275/30/19 with a 45 offset in the rear and this difference is causing a tiny bit of rubbing over big dips on the left...nothing at all on the right. I've had RS-R swap the rear springs already...they've been super cool...but it's obviously the car. I have a 1 finger gap on the right side and on the left the fender touches my finger. Is this the gas tank??? What could it be??

Are the springs installed properly on both sides...meaning they are sitting properly in the proper grooves? Is one of the springs installed upside down? Did you get the car aligned? camber, caster and toe will affect ride height.

My car lean a little to the left as well on the stock suspension. I'm running 275/35/19 and rub only on one side. Must be a Lexus thing

Same thing on my TEIN s-techs. Driver side is just a bit lower.
