You did not say what year?? But your profile says 2007 so I'm not sure unless I did a search

I agree 3-4 inches on a C4

I would get a couple of 2”x10”x8’ boards to take take with you. You can’t be too prepared if your car won’t load on the transport without scraping the bottom of your car. Ask me how I know! My 93 vert has 5” of clearance.
