Hi Draco!
It was lowered in 1981 by Carlo Noce, the most famous italian Porsche specialist of the 70`s and 80`s. He took care of the setup of the suspension but I couldn`t tell you anything more. It was 31 years ago and we have the adjustments simply forgotten...The sticker of his workshop (Sportwagen) is still on the rear bumper (on the left of the license-plate).It wasn`t modified since then.

never measured fender height, its a neurotic battle depending on gas quantity. its stock fitment size on the tire. 16x7 16x8. I can actually measure for you if you want. I think there is 3/4 tank in it now. the tires are Continental ExtremeContact DW.

I can see it's low. You don't have to measure. I just figured it would be good data for somebody to replicate if they like the way your car looks.

How do you like the ExtremeContact DW's? I keep kicking around the idea of getting 7's and 8's for a set of them. The options for 9's are disappearing fast.

A buddy's '78 SC after a thorough refresh. Nicely lowered but not too much. My favorite angle right here.

the cars ability to hold the road is greater than my current courage level to push it to the point where I would discover something surprising. I used to be able to get it sideways around a tight corner. doesnt do that anymore. sticks fairly well.
