Good morning, as long as the scales are equal heights to each other , those scales will be accurate. Also try to get the wheel/tire as close to the middle of the scale will help as well. I know sometimes wheel offset and body overhang might push the scales from the centers of the wheels. Also - Please be sure to put the car in "Park" or in "Gear" so it doesn't roll off the scales. The other posts here are also very good information.
