1990 RS Ride Height?

I'm trying to find out if my rs has been lowered in the past. Right now its sitting on 235/60R15 tires on 15x7 rims with 3.75" backspacing, I have the lower front valence off of it so I can pull into my drive way and its still close to scraping sometimes it does. Could some one tell me the correct ride height for my 1990 rs V6? I searched but I couldnt find it.

Re: 1990 RS Ride Height?

even if the car has not been lowered, it does not mean that the stock springs are sagging. As for the measured ride height, i dont think anyone can tell you.

Maybe someone can give me some measurements like from the ground to the fender lip or from the ground to the bottom of the ground effects.

These cars are low and have long fronts and an even lower air dam plain and simple. Just take the driveway at an angle

Re: 1990 RS Ride Height?

I'm already taking the driveway at an angle and without the front bumper valence its still close to scraping,sometimes it does. I just measured from the ground to the fender lip and I'm at 26" in the front. Does anyone know the stock spec?
