Hey guys, as part of the spring deal I'm putting together, I need the following suspension height measurements.

B13 with stock springs
B13 with Eibach ProKits
B13 with Hypercoils

Please include the following information;
Shock absorber brand & model
Strut mount type (stock or extra-travel)
Tire size
Amount of gas in tank

Measure each corner as follows;
From the ground to the center of the fender lip.
Also from the ground to the top of the tire, so I can factor in tire size.
Oh, and let's do this on an empty trunk! :P

Thanks a bunch,
Chris

Here are my measurements (only items in the trunk were the spare tire and jack). I have stock springs (102k miles), AGX shocks, and an ST rear anti-sway bar.

Front: 25 1/4" (both sides)
Rear: 25" (both sides)
Tire size: 205 50 15, 22 1/2" diameter

(lets see, that makes just under 3 inches of fender to wheel gap!)

Here's the measurements on my '93 SE-R:

23.25 inches -center of fender lip (all four corners)
22.50 inches -tire height-all four corners

Tires: 195-50-15 Bridgestone RE-71s

Trunk empty and 1/4 tank of gas.

Eibach Prokit springs, Tokico blue struts. (Hold your comments, please. They suck, and are shot. They will not be on there for long once these springs are made.) :D

Hope this helps!

Thanks guys! :cool: Anyone else out there who can take measurements? I'd certainly appreciate it.

Chris

chriscar - since tire sizes can vary alot, plus the fact of air pressure in the tires affects the height, why not measure from the middle of the axle to the bottom of the fender as seen below:

dontblameme is right, from the center of the axles is the best place to get a baseline from.

Well, given the measurements he is asking, you can still get correct baselines. You are only one short calculation away from the distance between the center of the wheel and the fender. The only significant error would be how much the tire is compressed on the bottom due to the weight of the car.
