Did you bounce all the corners a couple times so they would even out?

I measured the tread. And it measured exactly the same. What's wrong?

Drive around and then see if they level out again.

No, they're normal. You should bounce the car/drive it a little hard around the corners to get it to even out after doing work with it, either up with the tires hanging, or with a new suspension. It's cause of the dampers.

yeah, when your done installing new suspension components you should always roll your car a bit to listen for noises. normally when i do that i push down on all four corners and then let it settle for a min.

if it was up in the air for any significant amount of time or on a really uneven surface, the damper probably expanded on one side.
