That's not how mine sits, it's 26.5" to 26.75" (depending on how the car 
settles) at the top of the wheel wells both front and back.  Tires are 
165/80x15s which I think are slightly taller than 165x15s.

I suspect you'll find many variations on the ride height from one car to the 
next (or even from one side of a car to the opposite side).
