Just been out to measure mine, fitted Cusco\'s all round, took a while to get it right but find this suits me very well,   Rear from ground up to wheel arch (center,) 25 1/2 inches,  front 25 inches, front lip 5 inches in the middle, this clears most speed humps, front tyres don\'t rub. looks low enough but feels well balanced, and importantly is not lower at the rear than the front! which apparently can make the car unstable,
Hope this helps Bob
