ride height survey
A thread in the 964 forum gave me this brilliant idea, why not a survey of ride heights and wheel/tire setups used
here's where the front/rear are measured
here are the specs
mine
front 94mm @fender 24 1/4"
rear 98mm @fender 24 1/2"
RS wheelcarriers and solid rear mounts
8.5ET54 225/40 x18
10ET65 265/35 x18

See attached for details, I am running more - camber then those measurements now but have not rebalanced and aligned yet (DIY alignments). Attached numbers were with heavy 17" with AS tires in 205/50 255/40.
Front 132mm
Rear 117mm
Currenttly with 225/40 (8 et50) & 285/30 (10 et65) MPSC at same height but running -1.8 and -1.6 camber.

And then you go cornerweight it.............
I used to obsess over it, to the point of experimenting with wedge on torsion bar cars to run through (now: NASCAR, then: CART) 3 and 4 at PIR. But since we didn't have onboard data, who really knew?
Ultimately now I live and die on minimizing bump steer. (Which not so surprisingly kinda caught me out not 20 minutes ago with Ruby. I've been driving it as-delivered, and even with raised spindles I can tell it's got some weirdness up front.)

Hi
Tyres 18inch P Zero Front 225/40 Back 265/35
Chassis to Ground Hights
Front Left 135mm, Right 133mm
Back Left 125mm, Right 125mm
I did have the car corner weighted and what a positive difference that made.
PSS10's set at 5 front and back.
This is for road use.
Interesting the rest of my suspension set up is the same as Erik rsr91128.
Thanks,
