In Reply to: Any reason why my 325ic would be lower on one side posted by G-ZIGN on September 25, 2001 at 12:01:44:

jack up the drivers side as if to change a tire. Then lower it and go sit in the passenger seat for a minute then go measure which side is low.

Mine was never even with old springs and shocks until replaced and I'd bet it isn't even right now with all new cause I just got out of the driver's seat again after another commuting day. I wouldn't expect the car to be any more precise than a 1/4 inch from side to side. I think the gas tank is off to one side and that is sometimes pretty empty, not to mention the tools on one side in the trunk...I guess this means that all springs don't wear evenly, hopefully they are within a 1/4 inch, I don't know just guessing. Good luck.
