Considering lowering the car and I started to measure the distance from the center of the wheel to the top of the fender well and here's what i got - 14" at the front (right is 1/4" higher than left); and 13 3/8" at the rear (exactly the same).

Does anyone know if I should be concerned regarding the 1/4" difference in height between the front-left and front-right. The car slightly veers to the right.

Will take the car to the dealer this Friday and will keep you posted.

The difference in height right vs. left could be just the car's normal auto leveling adjustment kicking in. Depending on how level the surface is where the car is parked, the auto level will contort the car to try to keep level. I know I have parked my car on some unique, uneven surfaces and it is amazing how the car adjusts each side, and front/back to keep it level.
