I have heard that it is supposed to level out once the driver gets in the car. Guess I don't weigh 250lbs enough for it to do that though because mine is like this too with an H&R cup kit.

I dont think a alignment would help. The car is sagging to the side like the spring was cut or it was a weak spring

Gas tank should be centered to even out weight

If you check the spring height..double check to make sure your frame is still intact on both sides....it could possibly be that, just giving you a idea because mine did the same and it was when my frame starting to rip out

This is a good point. This is a known problem on pre 2001/09 e46's. subframe tear-out is plausible. Search subframe failure to find how to look for subframe tear-out.
