Stock Muffler Tips

Has anyone noticed whether the muffler tips on their cars are even in terms of how far under the rear diffuser the tips are? I looked at my car and noticed that the passenger's side tips stick out rearwards about .75" farther than the driver's side. This is on a completely stock exhaust that has never been removed from the car (at least not to my knowledge). This struck me as quite odd and wanted to find out if this was common.

That’s totally normal, and when the engine is on a normal running temperature the tips stick out even more about ¾” to 1”

Measured how much they stick out at the morning, then measured then when you get to work.

Bumping an old thread.

I just noticed the same thing on my car and I'm looking for a fix.

Sadly, there isn't much to adjust.
