Default Brushless Motor Timing

I recently purchased a new Team Scream 17.5 motor. I placed it on my Sky RC motor analyzer and it came up Ph A 45*, Ph B 36*, Ph C 39*. Is this normal. I have a Reedy Sonic and all the phases are within 2* of each other.

I believe they should nominally be closer. I'm not sure if shimming the rotor would help. And I'm not near good enough soldering to attempt moving the sensors.

Team Scream came wrapped in plastic, no box. This seems to be the new "Hot motor" . I just read on another thread it has to do with the symmetry of the rotor. Yes new. I soldered the connections.

I have the same problem with a brand new non soldered motiv mc2 with 10deg difference between B and C phase at any can timing test!
Thanks for rotor symmetry answer!
