There seems to be some debate over the 6MT's wheel gap being bigger than the 01/02's. I just took a yardstick and measured the distance from the ground to the fender. Its just over 27" in the front and maybe 1/4" less in the back. The car is 2 years old with 35000 miles, stock wheels, and stock sized tires.

Can someone with a *new* 02 measure? Can someone with a 6MT measure?

 

i'm 25.25" front. not stock though.

 

I'm 22 in the front and 20 1/2 in the back....not stock though I also have the option to add about 10-12" to those figures at any time.

 

Bro, can you take pics of your car with the highest possible raise with the airbags? then rake the car and take a pic. I would work wonders with Photoshop if you could get those...

 

Unfortunately I don't have a digital camara anymore, but if anyone at the CL meet Sat has one I'll have them take some pics for you.

 

I've got a later build 2001 with 3,800 miles: 27 5/8" Front, 27 1/2" Rear....

Dang, those really are SUV-like numbers...
