F30 uneven ride height with Schnitzer springs

Any ideas?
I have a F30 328i with Schnitzer springs from JSN.
The right side of the car sits +/- 5mm lower than the left side.
BMW dealership says its within tolerance.
I can see the difference and it bugs me.
I am considering doing some work on the upper and lower spring pads to get the ride height even.
Would appreciate any advice on sorting this out....

You can buy thicker spring pad rubbers from the agents and replace your standard ones.

I would propose that you get them to do it as part of the installation if they sold you the kit and installed it.

Correction it appears that thicker pads are not available as pointed out by Kish.

Even with oem springs the left side especially the left rear sits about 3mm higher and the Right front will sit lower than the Left front.

Get some km's on the new springs and then get BMW to do wheel alignment according to their method (with loading) then tighten up the suspension parts (Camber, toe etc).

I have had these ACS springs on for 2 years now. I suspect a seating issue or spring pads are worn?
