Someone commented that my rear arch gap looks big.

Read somewhere on here, but cant find it so could some tell me the distance from ground to arch for a 1999 year on standard 16s. Rear tyres are 245/45 16.

Measure it and the front, they should be about the same - 665mm IIRC

Obviously, tyre wear is a factor.

If your tyres are near the limit the gap between wheel and arch will be upto 8mm more

Got the tape measure out. Measure 66cm at the front & 67.5cm at the rear.

So it does seem to be slightly higher at the rear. Could there be any reason for this or is too small to worry about. Surely spacers cant still in after 8 years.

Any chance someone could measure theirs. (Ride height that is )

660 (front) and 655 (rear) - my rear tyres are fooked though

Mines 635mm all round but then I'm lowered by 30 mm
