lower on one side

hey guys i just got my new 19inch wheels " looks unbelievable by the way" butttt the passenger side rear rubs on bigger dips. i took a measurement from floor to fender and the passenger side is about a half in lower to the ground... is there anything i can do or is this a normal type thing... second what happens when i hit 80mph will how much will the car drop in the rear....

thanks in advance.. ill post pics soon.

your fine at 80 plus, i have 19" and you prob just need to roll your fenders as I needed. After awhile of driving mine bent themselves. Just make sure the rubbing is the outer fender and not something up against the inside of the inner car

yes its at the outer fender.... its like a half inch from the sidewall you can see a mark where it hits sometimes..... anyone know where i can get my fenders rolled in the chicagoland area. and how much would that cost????

its not lower on one side...when you get out of your car the driver side is higher because before you turn the car off the sensor adjusts to even the car with your weight still in it...when you get out the drivers side raises...try this..

raise the car
get out
lower the car with no one in it
wait a minute
turn the car off

this way it should be dead even...i know this works with my ABC not sure about airmatic...hope that made sense
