help with spring problem

i recently had my sportline springs installed, everything seemed fine but i noticed that the left side of the car was a little higher than the right side, about half an inch. i assumed it might of been because of the spare tire being on the right side but after removal, it is still pretty noticeable, any ideas why this is happening?

left side being driver's side? if so, that's "normal". Don't know why it's designed to do that, but every lowered car Ive seen is like this, mine included. though it's not off by much, maybe 3/8 inch or so.

The springs might need to "settle" first.

yea at first i thought it had to settle, but its been over 3 months so im sure its settled by now, 3/8 of an inch isnt too bad, but mine is about half and inch
