10 inches in the middle

Mine measured 8 1/8 inches. Something different between 94 and 95?

[Sam Son]

iirc his car is on bigger wheels and tires so it may be a bit higher..
my car is a 95 525 and his car is a 94 540 either way i just wanted a general height so i could get a ballpark guestimate of how low my car is

8 1/8 you say...stock suspension, wheels and tires?

I was interested until you said stock ride height.
