Ride Height and How Much Drop

[NeonPinHead]

Where do you measure ride heigth from? what is stock ride height for 92-95 Civic Hatch's? My real question is how do i find out how much of a drop i have on my car?

I've always measured from the tip of the jack supports on the car to the ground. I guess that would be ground clearence? what is stock height from the floor to the tip of the jack supports on my car?

about an inch and a half drop should be sufficient enough

the question is how would i know if i'm dropped an inch and a half? where do i measure?

I measure from the wheel to top of wheel well. you can measure from the ground though; 1.5" drop= height before minus 1.5"

what's the height stock?

you normally measure ride height from the ground to the highest point in your wheel well, not sure on how to tell how much a lowered car has actually been dropped except for maybe direct comparison.

I measure from the top of the rim to the tip of the wheel well

Drive around and find a stock hatch. Measure it's ride height and then compare it to yours. :wink:

lol, i guess that's the only way... doesn't anyone have a stock hatch? i was assuming that you guys measured your car stock to have something to compare. how else would you know how much you dropped it?
