Question 991.2 GT3 Touring OEM Ride Height

Hi, anyone know the OEM specs for ride height? I think the previous owner lowered the car and want to take it to my tire shop and have them set it back to OEM and do an alignment.

I can take measurements on mine which I believe is stock on ride height. Where do you want measurements to be taken from (wheel arch highest post to floor, bottom skirt to floor)?

There are measurement points at bottom of vehicle that are done on alignment rack. Dealer knows exact specs for the american market

I was gonna go measure from the fenders 😂

Those tire pressures look high in the ride height video. I wonder if he puts the cold pressures up for ride height adjustment to adjust for warm tires.

This is not an alignment shop thing, you need someone with setup equipment that can corner balance and reset camber/toe at the proper ride ht.

Can someone measure the stock height from the front bumper spoiler lip?

@socalcarguy
I checked my 991.2 GT3 Touring before dropping (OEM height) and after lowering front

Front OEM: 67.5cm from floor to arch of the wheel (taken at the center of the wheel nut)
Front Lower: 66.5cm after 2 full turns of the nut so 1 full turn will lower or raise by 5mm about (estimated for first few turns)
I could measure from floor to bumper lip only after lowering and I am now at 10cm

Rear OEM: 68cm

See pictures below taken after lowering, I only took measurements (no pic before)
