Need help please look
 
i have a 1999 ex and i just got new tires and went from 45 treadwall to 50 treadwall and come to find out for some reason the ride height in the back is lower on the driver side then the passenger side the passenger side has good clearence from what i can but the driver side the body is pretty much sitting on the tire. Any ideas as to why its sitting lower on the one side than the other? Thank you for looking and any suggestions are greatly appriecated

the shocks seems fine the only thing i could think of that is different between the left and right side is that the right rear i replaced the lower control arm and the left side still has the original food for thought thanks :)

i tried putting spacers between the springs but it just goes back to the way it was and rubs on the sidewall...any ideas? thanks

what size tires do you have on there and you should have a 205 and not 215
the 50' series is for 15's
45' for 16's
40's for 17's

thats not the problem the other 3 sides fit except that the driver side rear is sitting lower then the rest of the car
