Coilover Ride Height.

I recently got some Rota p45r 18 X 9.5 wheels with Yokahoma S. drive 255/35/18 tires and love the wheels. I rolled the rear fenders

But what is weird is I have measured from the top of the fender to the center of the wheel (or hub) and it is equal on every wheel. BUT it still seems as if the rear sits higher than the front. Also a lot of times while going over a bump the front will rub against the plastic lining inside the wheel well. But the rears NEVER rub since the fenders were rolled.

I realize I should probably raise it up a little BUT the rears look perfect and don't rub at all. But I'm just wondering if its normal to have the rears higher than the front ride height?

Raise the front.

Try setting the front hub/fender distance to be 1" more than the rear. What is the distance now?
