GT500 CFTP suspension

[808 GT500]

Hi I have a 2021 GT500 CFTP and it maybe my eyes playing tricks on me but it looks as if the car in the rear is leaning towards the driver side a bit. I measured to center or wheel well and it was roughly 1/4”-3/8” low compared to the passenger side. Could it be bad springs? Alignment?

It’s called “normal.”

Tire pressures all the same? All shipping blocks removed? Got a photo to illustrate?

Yes our cars are higher on the passenger side. Dunno why but they are.

look for the thread "clocking bushings" and do it on a 4-wheel stand.

Too many threads that mention it, care to post the specific one?

Because women have gotten heavier over the years. The jacking effect serves to compensate.

Yes all tire pressure is same. Although camber is pretty steep I don’t think that would affect anything height wise. It just certainly looks like the drivers side wheel gap to fender is much smaller.

I guess I could see how one side would be higher than it is designed to be if (for example) a rear coil spring wasn't seated properly. If one side was lower than it should be I'd be looking to see if a spring isolator was missing. You can see one at the top of the rear spring here from when I was swapping CFTP springs/rear bar onto my Base car.

Another shot where you can see the isolators in place with the wheel off.

Yea i will check the isolators out tomorrow. I have wheel alignment friday as well
