I'm looking at the pics from the first poster (bjweber) who confirmed he's in the US. It's a little hard to tell what the gap is due to the angle of the picture, so it's up for debate. I thought it was about 3.5". Regardless, it's definitely less than the stock 4.5" gap. As MP4 pointed out in another thread, the best way to do this is to go to an Audi dealership and have the same person measure the Q5 and SQ5 back to back, from the ground up to the fender which is how measurements are taken for VAG mods.

I think tire inflation results in trivial measurement differences, so I was suggesting a method that's easy to replicate to compare the ride height of 2 different vehicles. I think eyeballing the center of a wheel cap will result in more of a measurement variance than tires that are over/under inflated by a few psi.
