Forget that measurement, it won't be the same on similar set ups.
Adjust your suspension so that the measurements under the corner outrigger plates are approx 160mm rear and 140mm front.
This should make your wishbones approx level.
Adjust the spring seats, drop the car down and manoeuvre back and forth to allow the springs to settle. Then check measurements and repeat until correct.
I usually set the offside a few mm higher as most of the time only the driver is aboard.
Ideally, have the geo professionally set up although I used the above method for about eight years!
