I wouldn't consider 1/4" if you're measuring at the quarter wheel-house lip unusual BUT what I would do maybe is even the bolts on each side and take it for a ride and do some of the 'rumble-strips' at speed to shake it out. Do the 'rumble-strips' on both sides of the suspension. There should be 'rumble-strips' on the shoulder of nearly all highways these days.

You can't measure these cars at the wheel-house and consider those dimensions to be true. All dimensions are to points on the chassis.

I wouldn't think a suspension unit that was minimally higher or lower unusual when jacked either. The condition of the shocks, the tension on all of the suspension pass-through hardware would certainly have an effect on that. A potentially weak spring, maybe but unlikely.
