Hi all, anyone else notice one side of the rear wheel having a larger gap/ride height than the other? My suspension is completely stock and car was purchased new 2020 GT 6spd.
Passenger rear wheel gap is about 1/4 inch higher than the driver side rear. I have no idea what is causing this or if this is within tolerance, but it's off enough where it's noticeable from the side.

Possibly you might have hit a pot hole and damaged your shock? Might be time to replace your shocks all around. We sell shocks and performance springs for your car here at www.lethalperformance.com!

1/4" is normal. My car's suspension is completely stock, but I have lowering springs and new shocks ready to go on once I collect a couple more items I want to do at the same time. I measured the wheel gap on all 4 corners several times in preparation for the lowering so I'd know where the car started out at, and found out that not only does the front sit higher than the rear by 1/2", but the driver side is also 1/4" higher than the passenger side.

Are you saying your driver side REAR is higher than the other side? Mine is the opposite, passenger rear gap is higher than driver's side, which doesn't make sense when looking at driver weight compensation if that's a thing on our cars, since the driver's side should be slightly higher
