Splitter ground clearance?
Does anyone know the splitter ground clearance? That is,from the bottom of the splitter to the ground. For stage two or stage three front splitter, c7z? Delivery height.
I have a steep driveway and I'm wondering how things are going to work out.
thanks

As a point of reference for front splitter clearance, my ZR1 has 4.5 inches of clearance b/n it and the ground (factory stock suspension settings) and I have had no issues with driving it.
I think stock height on the new Z will pose no problems, and folks can likely lower it a good bit before having issues.

My C6 Z06 with RPI ZR1 style splitter and Bilsteins is 4 3/4" in the middle, 5" at the corners. Bolts should be at OEM setting.

My front splitter is 5.75 Front fender 27.25 Rear fender 28.25 the car looks pretty good the way it is. Could come down another .25 to.50 but not worth messing with at this point. JD

I don't know Derek? I looked at a friends car and he had lowered his all the way around and it came out that after lowering, his front was about the same as mine and his rear was slightly lower. My rear could come down a little, and I may do it next time I have it on the lift. But all in all I am pretty happy with the way it looks. JD
