    Intex 18'x52" supports leaning

    Noticed the lean on the poles. High side is about 4" from level, leaning into pool. Low side is 4" leaning away. Low side legs have sunk about 2" compared to rest of legs. Added a pic of low side leg. Do I have to worry? Drain and add pavers( like wife said prior)?
