EA/B S and XR6/8/Sprint, where all 25/30mm lower than the standard Falcon ride height.

This is the height you get when you buy Low springs.

rob i must correct you here looking on fpv site the sprint had these tire specs

16" x 7.0JJ 5-spoke alloy
Tyres - 225/50VR16 Michelin XGTV Pilot SX

checked my original spare and is the same tire and a 225, maybe the gt has 235, they have diffrent tires, they have the pirelli pzero, and funnily enuff the only other prouction car in the world to come out with that same tire was the ferrari f40

Yes mate, the EBGT had 235, the ELGT had 245.

All the cars with the 16" optional wheels, and the Sprint had 225's.
