Can any confirm the standard front suspension ride height .
By that I mean the distance from the centre of the wheel to the wheel arch.
I am kind of thinking its about15 inches?
Asking as I drove my series 1 car out of the garage today and the front is sitting way to high at 17 inch
When I measured my old donor 1973 car it's 15 inch but it's been jacked up and down and hasn't moved anywhere to know if that is the normal / correct height.
Early cars seam to sit a lot higher I am now running 205/55-15 and need to obtain
So suitable Springs without running into coil overs
