Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

With that said, the 1/2" difference in radius of tire is why I am looking for some dimensions from others that have installed the ROW M030 or Ohlins.
Leading evidence: 'Install row m030 or ohlins' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Install row m030 or ohlins' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

First, I have read through all of the search threads that relate to my question but could not find an answer that would help.
I have been doing allot of research to upgrade my wearing suspension. I do not want to lower the car much due to approach angle into Garage and am also concerned about tire rub since I do not have OEM wheels and tires. I have narrowed it down to:
1. ROW M030
2. Ohlins Coilovers
From what I have found, both are sim. in how much they lower the car. From my search, I have found either spec data sheets (for the two systems) or dimension from ground to center top of fender lip. Many have different results from the specs and the dimensions also are not much help due to varying Tire diameters.
If there are any suspension gurus out there or if anyone has installed one of the above, I would appreciate the dimension from center of wheel to top center of fender lip (front & Rear). Any other comments welcome.
My set-up now, 2004 C2, OEM suspension, 19" Kinesis, front 8.5 w 50 offset w 235/40/19 tires, rear 11 w 64 offset w 295/30/19 tires.
Front 14 1/4" center to lip, Rear 14 1/2" center to lip.
Thanks and look forward to any help.
the first thing I have to say is; if you have 19" w/ 40 tires you are way higher than any stock height would be. You should have 19' tires with 35 front and 30 or 25 rear. Then you could also use lower row springs and still be at a reasonable height to drive
row springs will lower about 1/2 to 3/4" coilovers should be adjustable and should go alot lower.
a row spring is normal in the rest of the world. They dont seem to have scraping problems that is abnormal. if they did porsche would reengineer
Thanks for the response, I went with these sizes since there are very few (1 brand that I am aware of) for 25 rear tire. Since there were several brands with rear 30, I wanted to go with the fronts in a 40 so that the front and rears would be within .1" in dia of each other. Yes the overall tire dia is approx 1" larger than OEM, this equates to 1/2" ride height difference.
With that said, the 1/2" difference in radius of tire is why I am looking for some dimensions from others that have installed the ROW M030 or Ohlins.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
