Default tein s-tech problem

I have 05' with Volks Racing CE28N 18. I have Tein S-tech spring.

215/45/18 front 255/40/18 rear Falken GB-R

The problem is... Front right and left gaps are different.

front driver side is lower than passenger. about 1/2 in.

I have 2800 miles on my s2k.

Any opinion will help. Thank you.

If you just installed these springs, give it around 1-2 months for it to fully settle. I had a similar problem as well, but it turned out perfect after a month or so.
