New suspention trouble

I just took the front shocks and springs off my integra and put it on my civic and everything was easy to do and all, but I noticed when my friend put on the passanger side that the spring wasn't seated all the way in the grove, maybe like a inch out. Well when I got the car down the side I did looks lower then the side he did. Would having the spring turned out like that make it sit higher?

nothing to do with this post, but where are you from?

From Pa, why do you ask?

yes it could, cuz there is a notch cut out for the spring to sit in, and if its not seated properly will cause a slightly higher stance.
