Coilover adjustments

Hey everyone,

Here is my dilemma, I've researched different forums and have not found the answer I am looking for. I just switched to ISC coilovers from OEM struts with Tien S-tech springs. After preloading the coilovers, I adjusted the ride height. I used a tape measure and measured the distance between the edge of my rim to the wheel well fender. I got the same measurement all the way around and it is on point. When I measure the distance from the ground to the top of the wheel well fender i get a different measurement on different sides of the car. It's by 1/8th to 1/4", but when i measure from the wheel to fender, it's even all around, but not when I measure from the ground up. Is the normal or should i get my measurement from somewhere else.

Thanks in advance.

you should never measure from ground to fender. its a HUGE NO NO !!!! always measure hub to fender. you do not have an issue at all.
