How low is the driver side compared to the passenger side? If it's not really noticeable, like 1/16", your weight might have been affecting this issue.

Check if the springs are seated correctly on the struts, that goes for the top mounts and for the bottom as well. You can also consider your load at the back due to a sound system, or a tank full of gas perhaps? Measure in a flat surface and also check tire pressure.

I'm not really sure about the H&R springs, because I have Hotchkis springs, so I couldn't really tell if this is normal for H&R springs.
