Wheel size and ride height
I'm about to try to level out my ride height on my 85 before I get a full alignment and am curious if the whell sizing plays a role in the final obtainable height. I have 16" Fuchs 6's and 7's with standard tire sizes and I've scoured all the threads and Bently and 101 and nowhere do they mention wheel sizes and their effect on height. Wouldn't a 16 or 17 inch wheel be closer to the fender lip than a 15" and therefore should not be lowered to a specific listed height for say a 15" whell. Only makes sense to me.
Can anyone elaborate?
Thanks
