Default Is a uneven drop on springs due to the springs or the shocks?

So I lowered my car on eibachs and the drop is sligthly uneven. Ive been told that they might settle but they been on for about 3-4 weeks now. Is the uneven drop due to the springs or the shocks. Im asking because if its the shocks then I would be willing to get konis to even it out, if its the springs I would like to replace the springs.

Its because your corner weights are not the same. Cant do too much about it with nonadjustable suspension. If your gaps differ greatly side to side, then i would take a look at the springs

Did you preload the suspension before tightening all the bolts? My driver side sits lower than the passenger but I hardly ever have a passenger with me.
