Put stock suspension back on. Should front be higher?

Paid a shop to put my stock suspension back on. So much softer and quieter. Anyway my front is noticably higher with more wheel gap. Is the suspension specific to front or rear? Is it possible they are reversed? Look how much tread shows on fronts. I have parked it several areas all of which I think are level and it looks the same. Thanks!

Completley normal. It's much more obvious due to bigger wheels and tires with smaller sidewall. Not possible to get suspension mixed up front to rear

Thanks much! I knew it would look different with my 19s going back to stock but I thought it would at least be symmetrical.

Yeah that's the odd thing about the G's body design. Even stock the height is not symmetrical.

And even when the floor-to-fender height is consistent (coilovers), and there's an imperceptible rake to the car, it still looks off because of the flat curve in the rear fender.
