Tyre to wheel arch distance

Just washing the car and noticed the tyre to wheel arch is lower on the right hand side rear it’s 5 cm from tyre to wheel arch whereas the other side is 10cm , it’s not on much of a slant so why the difference, what should I check please

Suspension - Broken spring? Bent control arm? Damaged strut?
Tire - Pressure even?
Interior - anything heavy inside?

I'd look at everything on level ground too.
