Default Ride Height

Does anybody know the Stock Height of a '99 FRC at the top of the wheel opening to the ground front and rear? This is with stock runflats. I guess its the same on all C5s, except perhaps the Z06. I just wonder if my car was ever lowered.
thanks

My 04 vert was 29 rear and 271/2 front with 9,000 miles on it before I lowered it.

Thanks everyone. Mine is stock height. Never lowered.
These cars are low. That front spoiler is not gonna last long. I thought the '86 was bad.
