Well, based on the answsers that I have so far, Ulix I will have you know
that I am right in the ballpark. It must be the short tires!!!! The tires
are 175/60 and are pretty short although the height is about the same as the
155/80.
Right side front-7"
Right side rear-7 3/4"
Left side is like Doug's except that its 1/2" lower than the right. No
comment from Patrick is required :-)
I can drop it 1/2" with no problem, probably more in the back.
