Xida install questions...One corner lower
#22
Before I took it in, I used my factory jack to push the fender out so it would stop cutting into my tire when i drove it with a piece of would on both sides of the jack to even out pressure.

Here is a better angle. It wasn't severe. Per carfax this car was in no accidents before me, but the body shop said someone had previously done work to that side. But who ever had done it had done a really nice job because of the minimal amount of bondo used. So who knows how bad the accident before that was and how well of a job.
So I will just pull the suspension back out, pull some control arms out. Measure both sides really closely and then re-assemble to see how it goes. After that if I am still having issues, I will just say to hell with it and deal with it.

The FFD's are really nice wheels. Happy I went with them, a bit on the heavy side since they measured out close to 14lbs each. None the less great customer service and equally nice wheels! Everyone locally likes them.

I just installed mine a few weeks ago. I pre-measured both sides before install and the ride height differed by about 1/4" after the install. I would just adjust the perches until you have a height you are satisfied with. Also, something to note is that when you adjust one side it effects the other corners as well.

Do you care about looks or performance? Because unless you've put the car on scales to corner balance then it's all pretty meaningless. As good as the Miata balance is from the factory, the driver, fuel level and other optional equipment makes a difference in how the car will sit at each corner. Even when corner balanced properly I would still expect there to be a slight and measurable difference in ride height at each wheel end.
