I am putting an air dam below my front valence. Without simply riding around and trying to go up inclines, what is the most logical ride height for the air dam off the ground??

I have it set right now at 5 inches, but I have not yet lowered the shocks.

for the rubber?

Just put a 2x4 on the ground flat and use that to support the rubber.

Thanks Zach,

I am trying to find a height that will not scrape the rubber everytime I go up an incline. This will be for street use and not track. I realize this varies from place to place, just trying to see what experience others have had on the ground clerance of the air dam.
