A fair about of guessing here but something like 590 +/- 10 mm for the front and 580 +/- 10mm for the rear.
Measured from ground to the start of the plastic arch with 15" wheels and 195/50 tyres.

I measured my suspension on my drive before and after a spring change for a comparison but the drive isn't level and slops hence some guess work.
