Unvent rear height.
After install KW variant1 coilover, did alignment, I just took measurement rear height. They are 1/4" different. Any advise ?

I don't own coil overs but I do know this . Coilover shocks are adjustable for ride height . So raise the side that is low or wait for it ......... Lower the side that is to high . Sorry I couldn't resist .

Get it corner balanced. They will adjust the ride height, align it and scale the car properly with you in it.

Did you time the bushings before tightening everything up?

Suspension bolts should be tightened with the weight of the car on the suspension. Loosen it and then tighten everything under load. If that doesn't work then even though the springs are the same rate they have a tolerance of +- some factor. That will translate into a difference in ride height. Corner weighting it will compensate for that. Coil-overs take more setup than lowering springs, you can't just throw them in and go.
