Grabbed some quick photos of a body sitting on the rolling chassis.

Chassis is sitting at 100mm ride height.

Chassis is flat floor design with bottom of oil cooler level with the bottom of the chassis.

When the vehicle is complete nothing will sit below the chassis. i.e. sump, underbody exhaust etc all sit up higher than the floor level.

We have dialled up what we think is the perfect position for tyres in the guards combined for a given ground clearance.

Tyres are 225/45/17 front, 315/35/17 rear. The front guards will get filled out a little better with 245 front(which we recommend) both width wise and diameter wise.

If you want to you can lower the car further and we have those adjustable mounting points so you can keep the suspension geometry at it's optimum.

If you run 15" wheels, the 1" larger diameter of 15's will lift the chassis height by 1/2" inch and also tuck the tyres a further 1/2" up into the guards if you use the same chassis height as the 17" wheels. But as above you can adjust suspension height.
