my 86 crs si leans on the driver's side like about an inch. at first i thought it was due to the shocks that were in horrible shape. i changed all shocks and even put in some new lowering springs (i used tokiko blues, and suspension techniques springs). i still have the sagging and when i hit big dips or sudden dips on the freeway my rear driver's side tire rubs in my tire well only on the outter lip though, the good side doesn't rub at all, anyone know of anything that could help me? any hints in the right direction would be appreciated.

if your lowered you need an adjustable panhard rod(bar whatever) when you lower the rear the axle moves to one side. when sitting on a flat surface does it sag?

your suspension is old lowering springs with out a pan hard pbar causea the tire to scrap but you should replace bushings and get adjustable rear springs also check t bars

I just went through this . Read this thead: Spring height
I do have an ES bushing kit but haven't tried to install it yet. The new springs raised the car more than I had anticipated and I still have a one inch difference per side. Honda says there is a 1" allowance from side to side and it may be built in for road crown! JS
