T350 - gap between rear wheel and wheel arch

[nickfb1]

Just traded my 03 T350 in against a new T350 and noticed that the gap between the rear wheel arch and the top of the wheel is quite a bit wider than on mine and the other 03 53 reg cars there. The other new T350 has quite a large gap too.
My 03 car has a gap of about 1.3 " whereas the new cars are about 2" not much but noticable.
What have other people found and do you think the level will drop with use?

you can adjust the gap with the suspension on 2003 cars, so this may account for this

I believe there has been a ride height mod on post 04 cars to improve handling. My 04 car has 100mm ground clearance, Yours may be a little higher.
