Measured scientifically from the ground to the pinch welds with a tape measure. How much ground clearance you got Oppo?

A cigarette box, maybe?

I missed the scientific part

Haven’t measured in a while but close to a foot (to the pumpkins). To the pinch welds? Well over 2 feet.

Roughly 5.5 inches on the 2012 smart, idk on the 2016 since it’s lowered from the factory.

I want to give the 2012 6 more inches of lift. :D

Used to push cans in the vw.. I’m a fan of the scientific dub show scale method...

Also way too much. If you have 7, I may have a foot to the pinch welds!

False you need more high. Just bit

1 foot to the running boards, 14 inches to the frame, but only 9 at the skid plate

Brings up a good point. For better or worse, my pinch welds are the lowest point

I approve of this. Might as well chop off the roof too!

I’m keeping the roof on! Don’t want to completely murder the car’s structural integrity. :) Maybe I might cut into the panoramic roof (it’s crazing anyway) to insert a custom sunroof though.

To the bottom of the pinch weld? I’d have to pull out a tape measure later but my eyeballs say around 18".

The Miata in your profile pic looks a lot cooler than mine

Course it is. That’s what happens when you build them in Russia.
