hi,
i measure mine from the centre of the wheel to the top of wheel arch, 19 inches i set mine to and have no probs with that at all plus do it flat ground, after you've adjusted it re-check it the next day after its settled down a bit hope that helps.
cheers eboy.
ps, that advice was from a nissan dealer.

Nutter

I measure mine from the top of the hub to the bottom of the wheel arch. Spent ages trying to get it right until I realised I had removed one of the plastic arch trims the day before

Reclaimed the arch from the hedge, refitted it, and then had to adjust that side downwards, which is a big no no (apparently - who reads manuals anyway ?)
