Assuming you are talking 18" and assuming DRC

I seem to remember that the measurement is from the center of the hub to the fender:
Front 13" ±.25"
Rear 13.5" ±.25"

I would have to search hard for the original post (March 2010 or April 2010)

thanks Ben... I would assuming with some tire compression, floor to fender would around 26inch give or take.

Like Ben916 stated, a far more accurate measurement is from the center of the hub to the fender... This measurement removes the variables of tire pressure, tire diminsions, and wheel size.

I just measured my front 2 and they are 13.125+ center of hubcap to fender. Back tires are 13.675". I'm running on worn out 255/40/18's and am still having tire rubbing on my front 2 tires. My CV boot even needs replacement because of this rubbing.

Im trying to go up to 275/30ZR/19's with 19x9.5 or 19x10 this summer but need to figure out why I rub. I have pss9 coil overs so maybe the car needs to be raised 1"? I bought this car used with these tires so I'm not sure if the previous owner put spacers on it. Any ideas guys? Should I keep the same ride height and put 5mm spacers in?

Thanks for the help.

I'm at 13 1/16" front. 13 1/8" rear. Stock/recalled DRC

Edit: measured as it should be measured. Center of hub to fender.
