Measurement..........on an RT

[BRUN]

for everyone with an RT and 195/45/15" wheels on...........could you measure at the front from the floor to the wheel arch, the middle of it......like with the wheel in the middle

an then tell me if ur at standard right height or what lowerin kit u used ?

its just i want my front slightly lower an ive spent all the money i was gonna buy coilovers with.........and ive currently got a Bilstein Streetline kit on which was supposed to be 35mm but im not sure if its settled to that....

Uh, measure from the centre of the wheel to the top of the arch..

That way, it wont matter what wheels/tyres you use.

Mines 56cm on one side and 57cm on the other! Apex -40mm springs and KYB shocks.

1cm difference?! Thats quite a bit.

 

[BRUN]

thanks RT_owner........

what wheels do u have ?

 

[Bryan]

if there is 10mm difference

check the tyre pressures

Brun, Thats with 15in wheels and 195/45 tyres.

I dont know why its different at either side. I checked the tyre pressures last night when I measured the ride height and they were the same all round, although my usual trusty guage broke a couple of weeks ago so the one I was using may be incorrect. Its the same at the back as well?!?! Its lowest on the drivers side if thats any help
