Default RS-R Down spring passenger side height difference

I just recently installed RS-R Down Springs and afterward noticed that the passenger side of the car sits about a 1/4 to 3/8 of an inch higher than the driver's side. Has anyone else had this problem? I also noticed, while installing the springs, that the tops of the RS-R springs are not coiled level like the stock ones. Thinking that maybe this could be the culprit since all the springs are installed with the coil ending facing the driver side.

I have the Tein Basics and my rear drivers side is sitting lower then the passenger side. The great thing about the Basics is all that has to be done is adjust the one coilover to get the height even. And by the way, they Basics are great and a improvement over the stock suspension.

V35, PM me if you want to get rid of the RS*R's... if I remember correctly, they're the ones for the 350Z right?

its probably because you sit on the drivers side more than you have a passenger so you get more settling in the springs quicker. I have/had the RSR ti springs and it was the same on both sides.
