Here is my stock ride height.

**DRIVER**
FRONT::: 26.75" :::::: 4.25" ::::::: 1.75" ::::::
REAR::::: 27.75" :::::: 6.25" ::::::: 2.75" ::::::

**PASSENGER**
FRONT::: 26.75" :::::: 4.00" ::::::: 1.75" ::::::
REAR::::: 26.75" :::::: 5.25" ::::::: 1.75" ::::::


Interesting that only my driver's side rear is 1" higher.
(Probably for the theory that it'll level out with a driver.)

Some people on here that have measured their stock ride height have come up with higher numbers than mine (about 1/2" - 1" more). I have the stock springs. I've had the car since new. I can't explain why my car is lower.

I think my ride height is low enough. I don't want my car any lower than it is now.

Some threads on stock and modified ride height:
