Default Question regarding ride height

Bought an B9 Allroad -17 one week ago from an Audi original car dealer.

Yesterday I noticed that there is a lot more air between the wheels and the plastic edge in the front than rear.

I measured a difference of ca 4cm (1,5 inches) wider gap from the weel up to the edge in the front than in the rear. Is this correct? If not what could possibly have casued this? The mileage of the car is only approx 32 000

I gave a call to local Audi workshop but the hadnt heard about this before, still awaiting their response.

Regards Björn

FYI I finally found someone reasonable to talk to at my Audi workshop. It seems the rear springs need replacement. The car is also plagued with high road noise (see separate thread). Not sure if this could be linked to this?
