I just measured my front headlights and im at about 18 inches. That's bottom of the ground to the bottom of the headlights.
lowest part of the front lip sits 2 1/4" off the ground. lowest for the sides is about 2-2 1/8" and the rear is about 3 1/4.
I also heard someone telling me that if you cannot roll a tennis ball straight through the bottom of your car.. its too low. lol

hahaha as much as i try not to break any laws and abide by rules, one rule that i think is extremely retarted is based on how low your car can be. who the **** cares how low someone's car is? they arent causing any sort of danger to anyone on the road. are there any laws regarding how high your vehicle can be? i see a lot of lifted trucks in so cal and 90% of them are all complete dipsh1ts that have no regards for others on the road.

every time i come home, i have to go on the other side of the median in my development to get around the speed bumps cuz my car doesnt clear them :rofl: i have to cut over the street on the left before mine, which is on the right after the speed bumps, haha.

i guess thats kinda illegal, hahaha. but there isnt alot of traffic in here, and i can see if anyone coming, so its safely illegal, hahaha.

that low.

if youre askin for a measurement, i have no idea. but im tucking all the tires at least 1 finger.


just measured the corners of the bumper, right in front of the front wheels, and they measure 4.5 inches off the ground. and the subframe sits a little lower then that, so im prolly about 3.75"-4" off the ground id say

i think the laws and vehicle codes posted earlier are outdated. there are plenty of new cars whose headlights are lower. Last I looked it up, the law in ca was that no part of the vehicle can be lower than the wheel lip.
