That is actually a lot closer to perfect than my car was... I was off by like 100g in crossweight, but just adding weight where you think it needs it won't be a perfect fix.

I learned that before trying to get the scales to read right to check the tweak then take the swaybars off and make sure the chassis is actually level and at the height you want it, then start setting the spring collars while always paying attention to the chassis height at different ends of the car. Once balance is there with the collars, reinstall the swaybars and adjust the links from the swaybar to the arms to make sure the swaybar is under no tension at rest. Now the car should be right in this sense.
