Uneven Ride Height?

Hey guys,

Just picked up a Flying Spur on Friday night from Bentley Newport Beach. Today I noticed that the rear ride height looks a little uneven. The gap between the wheels and the fender on the driver side is about 1.5" and the passenger side gap is about 2". This is on the normal ride height setting. Just wondering if anyone else noticed this on their car or if it's "normal" before I make a call in to the service department.

Thanks!

actually I don't know about those cars
but on the bmw's
it's like that
and when you get the car lowered, they use sandbags to simulate a person sitting in the drivers seat
hope this helps

Check the floor you're measuring from. Unless that's perfectly flat and level all measurements you take are meaningless. When I installed my lowering links the wheel arch gaps were all over the place until I set up four blocks with a spirit level to sit the wheels on.
