Best way to measure the front is under load. Measure from the CENTER OF THE WHEEL UP TO THE LIP OF THE FENDER. This measurement will not change no matter what height tire you have. You could call E.C.E. in california as they sell springs and know this measurement, as i ended up with a spring that sagged that i purchased from them YEARS EARLIER. They had me do this measurement procedure, and sent a free replacement. Remember that dropped spindles/stock spindles will affect this measurement.

I would assume that the rear would use the same measurement procedure.
