how high are you?(suspension)
how high is the bottom of your fenders from the ground? the distance I'm referring to is shown below.
I just measured mine as a baseline before the coils are installed. I'm curious what others height is with different wheel/suspension combos. here are my measurements from bottom of fender trim. here are my heights, stock w/245-40-18s.
mods, can this please stay in main 2nd gen forum for a while?

I'm 26 1/4" all around with 245/35/20 which is 1" taller than stock. This is probably the lowest setting you can have for 20's. You'll hit the inside wheel liner if you go even lower.

Just a thought. Wouldn't just the slightest change in elevation of the ground, change the measurement? I could be wrong, but it just seems like it would.
But I guess that would be the outcome regaurdless of what points you measure at.

Hmmmm....................interesting.
I have 26 3/4" all around with the exception of the passenger side rear which is 27 1/4".
This is with the Tein CS on 245/35/20 all around. This is also with a full tank of gas.
Should I look into this or is it normal for one of the measurements to bee off like that ?
