uneven springs

Whats up guys i did a search and couldnt find a real answer.........

i dropped my car on tein s-techs and today after a few hundred miles on the springs i noticed the left rear tire is almost tucked with barely a 1 finger gap and the left front tire has a 2 finger gap. The right rear tire looks stock,3 finger gap,and the right front tire has a 3 finger gap too.....when the car was on stock springs i noticed it was a little uneven,but with the drop it is so noticeable,especially the rear with 1 side being so dropped and the other looking stock.any suggestions

Yeah, you're supposed to torque everything down when there is weight in the car...

like he said. Did you tighten every bolt up while the cars was on jacks, or did you put the car on the ground.wait 30 min and THEN tighten the bolts up?
