Just measured mine looks like just shy of 5" so plan for 4.5" to give some room. That is from the ground to the lowest underside of the side molding under driver's door. Seems to match up with the exhaust height also. I have my Signature wheels on but they are R spec with PS4 tires not the CF wheels with Cup2s.

I also have stock springs, the FP springs would lower it further also.

5.25"of ride height, 4.5" of front splitter height, 9" from bottom of driver door to ground.

This is a 2020 R, all stock

I had mine shipped and I had the dealer do everything for delivery except remove shipping blocks and install the front splitter.

I just can't seem to get over the hump of having shipped. I really want to see and inspect the car before taking delivery. So, did you have an inspection done at the dealer before the car was loaded? or just trusted the driver to inspect before loading?

Thank you in advance.

Probably a member near your dealer somewhere...

Have to trust your salesperson. A good shipper will take pictures and document ANY blemishes before they take 'ownership' of your car. They know anything on it when it gets there that they haven't documented is on them.

I would advise you to have the car inspected by someone you trust or inspect the vehicle yourself. My 2020R model arrived and had a fender issue with alignment to the front bumper. Also possible damage to the carbon fiber wheel.

Where is the R located? I'm sure someone on this forum, if they are close, would give it a look over for ya.

Are they replacing the wheel for you?
As far as I know yes they have a case opened with Ford. The dealership is saying that whatever that was they were able to get off the rim. I go on Friday to inspect to see.

With all due respect I suggest that you should already know the right answer to your question. :sunglasses:

yes, yes I do. I'm going to go pick up the car myself. Can't believe I may buy a trailer for the pleasure but hey... it's all about those smiles per mile one I get behind the wheel!
