MK3 ibiza sport TDi distance from wheel arch to floor?

[A.m.C_Ibiza1]

Morning!

I have just slammed my car down on some AP coilovers and im interested as to how far down it is!!

Would someone be kind enough to measure the distance from the wheel arch to the floor for me (front and rear)

Many many thanks!!

why dont you just put the original suspension back on then measure it then put the ap's back on and do the same shouldnt take you longer than say the whole day...

can you measure from where:

the rear bumper joins the rear arch (on the corner)
the front bumper joins the front arch (again on the corner)

this gives a nice and easy datum to measure from
