Lowering Car By Spring Plate Angle

Does anyone know if it is possible to get a rough idea of how many degrees turn on a spring plate will lower a car 1cm? Im planning on lowering my rear and have seen some magnetic angle measure's that will measure what angle the spring plate is at. If say I want to lower it 2 cm is there a way to work out how many degrees I need to turn it from it current resting point to achive this 2cm lowering?

Steve

The calculator targets "Euro" ride height with the 3.8+" angle used at static ride height. This is ~ 25.5" front / 25" rear fender lip measurement.
