I recently got tein basics installed on my 6th gen accord lx. And I lowered it evenly on all the sides, to lowest. (front is about 3 inches drop, rear 2.8 inch drop)

My front's gap seems even, but My rear has uneven tire/fender gap. My left side has the gap and not on my right.

wat could be the problem?? could it be spring rate difference??

are the coilovers position specific? my guess is that you got one of the fronts mixed up with the rears. (i've never installed coilovers before, but this does happen with springs from time to time)

I guess that could be possible, since they have different spring rate..

anymore ideas??

mine are slightly uneven but they are not coilovers. If u can't fix it then just raise the lower side.

Oh have someone sit in ur drivers seat and see if it changes. Probably not but its a possibility that the left side is awaiting a driver's weight.

thats how they are but their ok cuz mine was doin the same thing. on my situation it was my front not back. i lowered my teins all the way down on the front and one side is higher or lower than another. so i called tein ask them wats up, they told me its normal cuz one side must be heavier than they other side which was true because i have the abs sits on one side so its heavier on that side. so maybe thats the case on urs but not really sure just call teins and ask them.

i had that same problem with my coilovers. u didn't install them incorrectly it's just the way the coilovers are. get the h&r race springs. they will dump your car the same amount, corner better, and ridesmoother.

I'd go springs over coil overs any time.

a guy that used to work for eibach and now works for ground control told me that tein springs sag thats why one side is lower than the other. I have tein ss on my car and my driver side is a bit lower than the passenger side. Just adjust the car to compensate i guess
