Default Lowered ride height 18/19

Hey, if anybody who has lowered their car the recommended amount from stock for performance driving (3/4-1") and is running 265/35-18F|305/30-19R could give me the measurements for their car's ride height at the jacking puck holes, I would appreciate it. I want to lower the car a bit more, but I'm not sure where the current ride height is in relation to stock.

I know the "lowering" threads have been beating to death on all Corvette generations forums.

The day I installed my DRM's Z06 Bilsteins I did some marking and and took measures on the shocks travel distance, and on stock height an inch it what the Z06 has.


front:












I saw that and decided to leave it at stock height.

Ditch the Bilstein bushings and replace them with stock and you will gain some travel.

I didn't see anything about the factory ride height on 265/35-18F|305/30-19R in those threads
