Went back to shop and the links are at 65mm they think it's my air sensor so they want to take the sensor off and look at it. However when I got home and remeasured the wheel gap I noticed the left rear had dropped a little lower to match the right rear.

Interesting. I'm wondering if when they took the links off, they noticed an install error of measurement and then adjusted it. Lol. Sometimes you have to reset the baseline of the air bags with the software. May be as simple as that.

I had to jack the car up to put my Vossen wheels on and the wheel gap came back but settled back down after driving to and from work. The adjusting is just something that I'll have to deal with due to the air shocks.

Wondering if I have to do the same. Its almost like 1 side rear needs half turn not full turn on the drop link to have it even. 1 full turn takes it down or up too much.
