Nissan 370Z Forum - View Single Post - Do you know what your car's drop really is?

This may sound like a dumb question- but with context, I think its valid.

I picked up a 370Z recently without knowing some of the aftermarket specs- specifically what suspension upgrades were bolted on.

The car is definitely lowered, but I am trying to figure out how much. I won't get it up on a lift for a while to take a look at the springs, etc. I am curious if I can take a quick measurement at some point and compare it to stock.

Is the "top" of the wheel/fender the best place to measure- then estimate tire height differences? Does anyone have stock numbers to this point (from ground to lip of fender) with stock wheels?

Is there a better quick-and-drity way that I can do in two minutes?
