Front end/left side of car sits lower than right side (stock shocks/springs)?

I have an 04 EX Coupe. I'm noticing that it looks like the left side of my car sits lower than the right side, although a very small difference (there is more of a gap between the wheel well and tire on the right side than there is on the left side, so that is why I don't think it is a tire pressure issue or anything stupid like that). You can actually almost feel the car leaning over to the left side. However, my alignment seems to be screwed, and the car actually pulls to the right a little bit, but overall seems to feel pretty good and goes straight for the most part. Any ideas?

I have the same problem in the rear end though, I'm not sure if it's a bad strut because I don't any oil or anything like that on the strut. I have huge sub box in truck that I have nudged closer to the left side. The car actually raises a little when I take the box out.

if you have lowering springs on stock struts, the chances are that your strut is blown. but dont worry, because the other side will eventually blow out too giving you an even height again.

just check your tire pressure just incase, but i doubt thats the case.
