How High is Your Car?
What should the distance be from the ground to the bottom edge of the lip on the wheel opening....with 255/60/15" tires? Mine is 28 1/2 with 235/60/15"s and 29" with 255/60/15"s. I read some where on the Forum either 27" or 27 1/2"
thanks :cheers:

Just measured mine for you.
DS PS
Front=28 Front=28 1/2
Rear=28 1/2 Rear=29
Just a little lopsided. I didn't check tire pressures though. Could be the difference, I don't know.

Re: How High is Your Car? (1970 Stingray)
I haven't measured my car, but I know it's real low. I can't change the oil unless I lift up the front end, because I can't get an oil pan underneath the drain plug. I tried 2 different oil pans, and neither one will fit unless I lift the car up.
