What's the proper method for measuring ride height?
From what I've found in the archives:
From the floor/ground to the fender--bottom portion of fender--directly above the wheel going directly in the center of the wheel.
Is this the proper method?
Also, does anybody know what the ride height is for the StaSIS/Vortrag fixed height original Street Sport set-up (Hyperco springs 450F 500R with Koni dampers) is suppose to be using the above measuring procedure?
Thanks to all theat read/reply.....

I'm getting: front: 24.50" (slammed?) and rear: 25.50" ........
Everything's finished.....what a project.
From what I've gathered, the ride height for the StaSIS / Vortrag fixed-height Street Sports is suppose to be 25.50" all the way around....
Not sure why I've got 24.50" in the fronts.....
Where's that 1" in x-tra drop comming from....it's suppose to be a fixed-height set-up.
???
I'll call you guys in a few.....

There are no spacers for the front....there's spacers for the rear....
But the rear measures out where it should be at....
If I were to take out the rear spacer (the spacer is a 3/8" lift), I would think that is may "raise" the front by a certain amount?? Not sure on the cause & effect this would have....
