The factory specs are quoted from the ground to the wheel arch. They are:

Front: 26.4"
Rear: 26.6"

I have found that few cars are dead even on delivery with most having a notable variance. Have also observed that over a year or more of driving the factory springs can sag more than an inch.

from experience.
And the sagging isn't even either.
Just took some measurements:
FR = 663mm (26,10")
FL = 660mm (25,98")
RR = 672 mm (26,46")
RL = 672mm (26,46")
Per axle equal tires and pressure.
6 year old now, 116000 km.


not temperature corrected
