How to measure ride height??

[wadkins14]

My JDM is just too low for me, i cant go in multi-storey car parks or even park on kurbs without catching my B-pipe :bad-words:

Im booked in at TGM for fitting new springs on April 24th, so ive got a month to find the right springs.

I love the look of the JDM being low, but its un practical.

I had no issues with my NHB CTR which had Eibach springs on Koni shocks, im looking to get the same ride height as that (i dont know how much that was lowered either?)

So how can i measure how low my JDM is lowered?

Anyone know how much my JDM and NHB CTR's maybe lowered by??.....

NHB maybe 30-35mm

Tom is a top guy, go with Eibach springs

To see how much your car is lowered by you would need access to the CTR manual for measurements, i think Honda measure from the centre line of the wheel arch to the centre line of the hub

Depends on how you measure it and what you want to compare it to.
I normally measure from the ground to the chassis rail closest to the wheel...
But that is just to make sure the front/rear/left/right is balance.
