Default Car wont sit right???

Three weeks ago I bought a brand new set of gr2's and neuspeed springs to use for my DD (Civic EK). After installing everything the driver side of the car sat lower then the passenger side. All mounts and plates were brand new when I installed it, theres no frame damage in any way. The weird thing is the car drives find. I took everything off and reinstalled it and it did the same exact thing. As anyone ever seen this? I am stuck now, so any advise would be helpful and please keep all negative comments to yourselves, Thanks.

there is a chance that the weight distribution is making the car set funny, if you had adjustable coilovers you could just lower/raise one side. thats the only thing i can think of. i never set both sides of the car to the exact same. the front right of my car has more weight from the battery than say the left side. so you have to compensate for that.

either that or where it sits lower the shock is bad just cuz its new dont mean its not broken. you can take it out and make sure its coming up smooth.

I never had coilovers on the vehicle. The car had stock suspension from before. Also I had everything removed and reassembled, it still did the same thing. All shocks are still good and comes up perfect. I also got the front and rear shocks from two different distributors. So thats very rare that one side will be bad if each set was from a different distributor.
