Measurements...

Someone in this threat asked me about the height of the car with the 030.
I personally don't think it is any lower than non-030 SLK55's.
If anyone have the time and desire, can you take some measurements of your car?

a) front wheel fender to mid wheel (ie center of MB star)
b) back wheel fender to mid wheel

For 030 is:

a) 13.75" (13 and 3/4 inch)
b) 14.125" (14 and 1/8 inch)

PS: I did this on the dark so the number may be close (but not exact) to reality.

I guess my assumption was right....the 030 is only shock spring rate (making it a little bit stiffer) and maybe some changes to the bars but actual height had to be the same for federal regulations (maybe).

Thanks!'
