Wheel Arch Height

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Subaru Impreza. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Adjust the tire pressure to specifications.
Set the vehicle under "curb weight" conditions. (Empty luggage compartment, install spare tire, jack, service tools, and top up fuel tank.)
Set the steering wheel in a wheel-forward position.
Suspend a thread from wheel arch (point "A" in figure below) to determine the point directly above center of spindle.
Measure the distance between measuring point "A" and center of spindle.
