    You should also get a camber kit done on the rear,I have the same car as you and the same suspension done I also had a castor camber kit put on the front.My rear springs are lowered heavy duty ones which is great if you tow anything,you also need to put in a smaller panhard rod because you have put in lowered springs

    Does it have IRS or live axle ?
    If you want to check if the shocks are causing the problem just take them out ( just the back ones ) and see if the height levels out. If its still uneven with them out then its not related to the shocks.

    Its the panhard rod youll need to chuck an adjustable one in there especially if you wanna go lower. if you see live axle commys that havnt had one and when you sit behind them they actually crab slightly sideways down the road lol

    I have never seen a Lowered commodore crap sidewayz, but I before I used an adjustable Panhard rod on almost every bump the tires rubbed and made a hell of an awful noise.
