Looking very smart and purposeful, Theo  :happy2:

What's the sticker on the 'C' pillar, please?

Looks like 8x18 with 225/40 R888's or 235/40's ?

What suspension has your car got Theo ?

The look of the ride height is perfect IMO, hunkered down but not slammed or nose down  :happy2:

I'm running KW V3's set up by VWR. I'm really happy with it. It looks mean and purposeful!

Theo, tks

Any chance you could measure wheel centre to wheel arch lip (straight up vertically to the lowest part of the lip of the wing) ? I have used this on before with  cars on the flat(ish) then measured both sides and taken an average  :happy2:

This against stock should show the approx drop. Yours looks over 30 but less than 40 ?

Any problems with speed bumps ?

I'll do front and rear for you this weekend when I get a chance to!

The only speed bumps I have a problem with are the ones into our carpart at work so I now take a detour, but they arent your average speed bump. They cause a problem to anything lower than a Defender!

Its just a case of being mindful of speed bumps and being sensible. I rarely carry passengers in the back seats. On the occasions I have, adults are ok, just take speedbumps slowly.

HTH!

I'll measure more accurately in the dry, but looks like 360 F and 355 R  so looks like  very approx 30mm F and 40-45 R
