stock ride height??

I want to know the stock ride height of a 2006 ss sc will be ordering lowering springs very soon, want to make sure im not wasting my money. Currently im at 3 fingers between the tire and finderwell, which seems kinda low to me... tire size is 225/45r18. Current springs have tags on them with numbers on them but nothing that says gm on it

well pics would help. and you could also look under your car and see what color your springs are. altho some aftermarket springs are black.

from the sounds of it your not lowered. just have big tires. should be 225 40 18 not 45

yes they are black, figured the taller tire made the gap seem smaller no good pics and it too dark to go get one sorry

yea you are most likely stock ride height. otherwise with those big tires youd have like no gap... even on pedders (which are orange)
