Default Body tilt

Hey everyone... new to the site.
Purchased a 2001 RR SE about 3-4 months ago. Had the suspension changed to spring coil.
If you look at the vehicle, you notice a slight tilt toward the passenger side and if you then measure the distance from the ground to the top of the wheel well, there is in fact about a 1/2" difference. (I did see much more of a difference before changing to spring coils).
My questions then are -
1. what causes this?
2. is it something to be addressed immediately?

Thanks for reading and any feedback is much appreciated!

Probably will need to install a 1/2 spacer in the low side to bring it up.

lol! Mine does that too. It isn't much of a tilt, so I'm not too concerned about it. I know on the classic rangies that they tilt to the passenger side slightly on purpose. So level out when the driver gets in. I don't know if that is the case with the p38, but I assume my fat **** displaces it to even again .

Thanks fellas; sounds like it's not too big a deal then. May have em put a spacer in upon next tune-up.
Glad to be a part of the forum family!
