Stock brz ride height
 
I installed coilovers over the weekend and I forgot to measure the wheel center to fender :bonk:
I've searched and only found fender to ground measurement. Can someone help me out. Thanks

I believe it's 14.5" from hub center to fender in the front. Not sure about the rear, but it's probably about the same.

LOL, I did this with my Honda accord daily a month ago. Good luck to me finding the measurements, at least here we have enthusiasts!

OE Tire size is 24.6" diameter
Take the fender measurements you found and -12.3" for the measurement you want.

Need to determine how much your car has lowered?
Distance between hub center and top of fender opening
Front is 14 7/16" and rear is 14 5/8"

As per the shop manual:

Front wheel arch to wheel center: 375mm (14.76")
Rear wheel arch to wheel center: 372mm (14.65")

That's about 1/4" higher in the front that I thought. I may have to revisit my ride height after learning this. Do you by any chance have a link to that info?

How do you compare to the ride height with aftermarket wheels?

it depends entirely on the change in specifications of your aftermarket wheels AND tires. if you did it correctly, the final circumference of the new tires/aftermarket wheels will be the same size, and therefore, all the axle centerline dimensions will still apply.
