Now I'm running 255/55/20 tyres so obviously the 55 profile will make a difference. The measurements were as follows..

 If you are measuring from the centre of hub or bottom of rim how will tyre profile make a difference ? | ||

| SMUTT Member Since: 30 Jun 2014 Location: Cheshire Posts: 459      | @JPS ... No problem, IID tool and RSW Allcomms can adjust the heights independently - make sure your car air suspension is in good condition before you start - ie no leaks.
