Are your tires the same size (width and aspect ratio)?
How old are your shocks/struts? How many miles on the car?
Is your car on a level surface?

mines like that even with the new suspension. i think the reason its lower on the driver side than passenger side is because every time u drive or w/e, u'll always be on the driver side and thats an extra 150lbs(for me) on the suspension...and the suspension just settles a bit lower with that extra weight. i dont drive ppl around often so theres never really anyone to sit on the passengers side to weigh down the other side.
