If its possible, I would like to compare measurements to other cars. The tipoff to our car that something was wrong was this. Wheels off for ease of measuring, straight edge plumb above rotor to centerline, measure inward to body of strut. My car is .5" different between sides. This tells me that static camber built into the strut is different.

You should never ever seek a camber angle goal by adjusting coilover spring heights. My poor customers car was so long in the front, its been chewing the chin of the body up significantly. Altering side to side coilover heights and not zeroing the sway bar will cause other problems as well. This is just from experience. I'm confident our coilover adjustment, so doing that static measurement on the top of the rotor to the strut was my final clue something was wrong. I appreciate the replies!
