While I am certainly not an expert on this subject, I have weighed all 4 corners of my car and I was surprised to see a rather significant difference in the numbers. With adjustable suspension, it is quite easy to have too much weight distributed diagonally, that is left front/right rear or vice versa. The car will be sitting perfectly straight but the weight will not be evenly distributed.

If you decide to weigh the car this way, make sure that the floor is level since any variation in the floor will have quite an impact on the weights.
