Eibach Springs - Uneven Ride Height

Hi Guys,

I bought my RX8 at the dealership in 2004. The most amazing and unique car i have ever owned. Along the way i changed a couple of things like the rims, carbon touches, invidia exhaust and a couple of other things.

I have a question regarding lowering springs. Ive read that its a common thing that the car sits uneven when lowering with springs. My RX is lowered with Eibach springs and sits 1 cm higher on the right side but only in the front. The back of the car sits even.

My question is would it help if i changed the springs in the front. So left would go right and the right spring would go left. Would that level out the car? Or do i have to buy coilovers to achieve this?

I dont think other people notice but it annoys me because i know

Thanx in advance

Gr, from Amsterdam

Does the car sit unevenly when you're in it?

I know that a lot of times shops will want the driver in a vehicle when they're setting the suspension up/tuning it, that way everything is even when the driver is in the car, as opposed to when the car is empty.

Just something to think about =)
