Does anyone know the correct value for the standard ride heights on a 2014 Vantage 'S'? Whilst I know they're normally measured from the wheel centre to the top of the wheel arch, with a full tank of fuel and 37.5 kilos in each seat, I can't find the factory spec for what these measurements should be.

I've checked the FAQs on here (see below) but it seems to suggest the ride heights should be 15mm! Perfect for a 'Max Power' stance, but might cause an issue with clearing bumps in the road! biggrin



Thanks in advance to anyone who might be able to assist.

I would guess the mm are cm, inch would be a bit to much

Thanks for the reply. I've just measured the distance from the centre of the wheel to the top of the arch on my car and it is about 15" (seems to be slightly less at the front and slightly more at the back). I'm therefore guessing somewhere around 15" is the correct dimension, but I've no idea what the actual, specified values are and I know they need to be accurate to within a mm or so.
