Jackpoint Jackstands

I just got my Jackpoint Jackstands and found something odd. The stands work fine and are a fantastic invention, but when I put the right front on the stand I could rotate the right front wheel, but when I did the left front, I couldn't rotate the wheel because it was hitting the floor. When I suspended that side on the jack, I found that the left wheel is over 1/2 inch lower. Is this normal variation or indicative of worn spring/strut? Also any suggestions for getting more height on the stands? They don't work on the rear because I need at least another inch of height there as well.
