Hi all,
I would be deeply greatful if if people could measure the distance between the rear wheel centre and the bottom of the fender lip.
Having self leveling problems on my 500E.
thanks in advance

1994 E500 with stock wheels and 225/55-16 tires.

From below the fender lip to the center of the center cap star:
FrRt: 13 7/8
FrLt: 13 15/16

RrRt: 14 3/8
RrLt: 14 3/8

I'm not sure why the front is 1/16 of an inch different...

Hope this helps.

Here is what I have on a stock car with 35psi all the way around on 225/55/16.

F/L - 363mm F/R - 353mm
R/L - 368mm R/R - 365mm

My gap at the rear is exactly 15" on each side, and the car hasn't moved in 2 days. Credit an entirely brand new, OE suspension for that largish dimension...not even broken in

In front, it's at 14 1/8" both sides. Suspension also fresh up front.
