Standard ride height: Anyone got a tape measure handy?

Trying to work out how much of a drop my car has had. I have measured from the ground to the top of the arch and my measurements are;

Front 645mm

Rear 635mm

 

So is there anyone running standard wheels, tyres, suspension that could take the same measurement for me please? :cool3:

 

Interested for my own records but also to assist another thread. Thanks in advance if one of you helpfull souls can help.

 

Daffy.

Thanks alot for that. Seems about right, before I lowered mine the rear seemed to sit really high. It looked like a 4x4, wasn't sure if this was a SWB trait.

well mines lwb and ui recon tehrs about a 40 odd maybe nearer 50mm gap between tyre and arch. on the rear fron is much much closer maybe 30mm its about double visually i guess

That's how mine sat pre drop. Just trying to give an informed answer to those asking how much to drop by. I've had no problems with mine thus far. Thanks again.

You can see for yourself if we get a meet organised.

yehs thats cool hopefully by then il be lowered a bit myself, ive got some new shocks coming, just gotta fit them lol. gotta get on with that meet arragement aswel, just so damn busy atm cant believe its 10pm already ive got a list of things to do still.

Mines on standard shocks, I have about 45-50mm gap between top of tyre and arch, on the rear, maybe 5mm-ish less at the front.

So pretty much backs up Z32Bolt's findings.

Thanks chaps. Glad of yours Phut, going to take mine down another 10mm at the front to level it out. Looks like i've got 5 bags of cement in the boot at the mo with the front being slightly higher.

Worried about speed bumps though so toying with lifting the rear instead.
