Suspension problems? 2015 FRS

Hey guys I just got my 2015 FRS a a week or so ago and I noticed there's more clearance from the right rear tire to the wheel well upwards than the left side. I've went on many different garages and surfaces and it's always the same measurement. Have any of you had the left rear lean a little bit parked? Any diagnostics will help , is it just because it hasn't been worn it yet? Btw I'm only 140 so I don't think it's my weight lol. I already checked tire pressure and the dealership said it was in factory standards but why does it lean?

Welcome to the forum ......

It could be that a rear spring isn't seated properly.

I suggest you have the dealer, or a local auto shop, put it up on a rack and check out the rear suspension.

Could you post a picture? @humfrz said bwst bet is the dealer. Always make sure that they have a solution before letting them "fix" anything on your car

Uneven rear camber? I know on my car, the RR wheel had -1.4 degrees camber, whereas the RL wheel had -1.0 degrees camber. Apparently a lot of these cars come with uneven rear camber from the factory. That might cause the uneven measurements you describe.
