Droptop73's wheels are 18" SVT wheels.

Normally my stomach churns at 18" rims on a Classic Mustang. Jeff's yellow 73 Vert wears the 18's very well, and looks great. Some of it is due to ride height. Something simular may be in the works for my 73 Vert, so I need tp replicate Droptop73's ride height. Measurment I need is from center of wheel well arch, down to the center of the wheel. Front & rear Plz Jeff.

TIA

i have 225/45/18 in the front and im about more than 25 but less than 26 inches off the ground from the highest point of the wheel well to the ground..I need(AKA want) to go lower haha
