A Spec height measurement

Does anyone know a easy measurement to take to determine if the springs have been changed from standard to A Spec.

Well, I have a AT with stock wheels and tires and I am at 26.5 in back and 26.75 in front, from the ground to the top of the wheel well opening. I have heard Aspec will give you around .5 to .75 inch drop, depending if you got a MT Aspec suspension or an AT suspension. Hope that helps, BTW can I ask why?

Kinda right, bought the car with the A Spec wheels 18x8.5 and Michelin Sport PS2 Z rated tires. I did not think it was the A Spec suspension and I really think it is not but the ride is fairly stiff so I'm think damn maybe this has the A Spec because frankly I would not want to go stiffer. With my wife driving it 99% of the time I doubt she will ever rev it beyond 4 grand. But fear not my 1% will make sure the VTEC kicks in.

I'm just up from Greystone
