What is stock ride height

I've been trying to find out what is stock ride height on a X, measured from center of wheel to fender. Couldn't find it searching or even in the FSM which surprised me (it was listed in my Subaru FSMs). Does anyone know what it is, or could take 5 minutes to go measure on their stock suspension X? It would be appreciated!

Sorry for the incorrect measurement I had my front wheels turned so I straighten them out.
I used a measuring tape with wheels on so might be +/- a couple of mm

Front wheel center going up to the fender 15 ¾” 400.05mm
Rear wheel center going up to the fender 14 ¾” 374.65mm

Interesting the difference from front to rear on one car was a whole inch while the other car was only 3/8" an inch... Tire wear?? Any additional posts from stock car owners would certainly create a more accurate "average" to go by. I am trying to find accurate numbers myself...

A lot of things could factor in.. How unlevel the ground is, tire pressure, tire wear.. The biggest thing is the ground.

The stock ride height was bugging me so bad. Looks like a truck >_>

Got my X lowered yesterday on Eibach Pro springs and wow... what a difference

Non-Stock Suspension Measurements

So a ground to fender measurement of
Front 25"
Rear 26"
...would probably indicate a non-stock suspension setup?
