991 GT3 clearance

Does anybody have specs to show the clearance from road to the bottom of the front chin spoiler? I want to compare to my 991 with SPASM. It has a lower chin spoiler and it has never hit anything....so am wondering how much lower the chin is.

I've read on another forum that the clearance is 93mm at the lip. The axle lift option will raise the lip an additional 30mm.

I just measured my 991 SPASM....138mm...so I guess this is is a big difference. This makes me think the front axle lift may be more useful than I first thought. I guess I have a couple years to figure it out....I am #3 on the list of a dealer that gets 1-2 GT3 allocations per year. So I will wait to hear consensus of the group.

Lift is my only must have option.

Some folks aren't doing it b/c once you forget to use it and once you lip is scraped, it doesn't matter anymore, and the 997 versions broke.

But for me scraping = nails on chalkboard. And, I would appreciate not having to plan every 'attack' into a gas station or back out of my driveway at a 45 degree angle every morning.

I think it's nice to have. I can't remember how many time I don't get a drink thru the drive thru because I don't' want to scrape on my 997 GT3RS a few years back.

I'm going to get flames for this opinion but I wish the GT3's rode 4.5" or greater off the ground for the street. I will sacrifice with slower track time for convenience . The RS version should be where it is. hardcore...
