Can anyone tell me what the 'normal' ride height of a C5 Z06 is? Where is it measured to?
Thanks!

5" front and 5 1/2" rear

Measured from the ground to the jacking puck holes. Just in front of the front jacking puck hole and just behind the rear jacking puck hole

corvettes need a rake of 3/8" to 1/2" for proper aerodynamics
