In your sig I that you did the washers mod to lower the car, normally anytime you lower a car, one side sits lower than the other (in most cases its the drivers side that sits lower). Its one of the main reasons we use coilovers on all of our project cars since you can make detail adustments to balance it.
with the washers I believe you can fiddle with the rear sensor to even it out.
Could you post pics of your car with the Collectizone Wheels? Thanks in advance

Have you try to park your at at perfectly even spot?
Airmatic has only one height adjument input for the rear(two for front..right and left)
It means rear is auto-leveled side by side.
The rear of Airmatic trys to stay parallel and this is why rear is almost uneven all the time.
So try to park your car and perfectly even spot and check the heights.
It should be same.

I had the same problem in my garage, theni thought it could be my garage so i went out to a parking lor and had a leveler with me, parked it where i thought it was level and the car was sitting equally all around.

'07 s550 4matic
is there any way to even out the rear? I've got a Eclass with the same problem. Airmatic sits higher on passenger side by about 1/4" (both before and after dropping via star). Is there any way to mechanically adjust this? the fronts are perfect.
