Question is does anyone know what the dimensions from bottom of rim to underside of wheel arch flare is or should be ,standard or with set of standard kings fitted?
Front is 690mm,Rear is 690mm as well with full tank of diesel,vehicle empty
Thanks in advance

The normal measuring method is from the middle of the hub to the underside of the wheelarch - ie hub to guard measurement.
Hub to guard specs are:
Front 485 - 515mm, with almost all delivered at 485mm
Rear coilers 468 - 498mm with almost all delivered at about 470mm.

Yours sits well. There are a few which are a bit higher like this.
Are you coiled at the rear or SLS?
