OP, that's all we got out of our car too (same wheels too), but we had a taller sidewall tire, which helped a bit with the gap. We never bothered with adding more preload, as I dont think it would have had the effect we wanted. Yours honestly looks a little bit higher, but it could just be the different tires. It's entirely possible that the shock bodies are longer than they should be, but obviously I'm not positive. But it is a reasonable explanation for why it would be higher than others when maxed out.

Thanks for the detailed response, this makes sense now. And yeah, the tire definitely has something to do with it, these are fairly thin sidewalls. The only thing that is confusing is that the passenger side is at least a 1/2 inch lower then the drivers side, which makes me think I did something wrong.
