can someone please measure me the distance from the centre of the wheel to the arch, as i want to work out how low my coilys are, as the current coilys are jiggered now.... and since becomin a dad i want something a little more forgiving, seen as its already lowered i can then find a cheaper setup with a similar drop without it lookin like a 1.1 paxo too low or too high at front Wink

measure from the jacking point on the sill front and rear, I think Neil (Iplay) knows the standard figures.

Hmm I tend not to go from that as of ground levels that's why I was asking for a rough measurement from centre of alloy (middle of lion) to the arch lip so it's easily measurable car to car (front and back if poss) as the ppl I know who adjust torsion bars measure this way as he states it's more accurate

Thinking about it I see where he's coming from cos if you measure as he does tyre size/ tyre presure doesn't play affect the measurement.. As I'm running 55 on front spares
and 50s on the rear clones the measurement upwards would still be the same
