Re: road height

Not normal. You can get stock body measurements from the factory manual. You can download a copy of the manual here:

LINK: 4TH GEN SERVICE MANUALS; 82-02 PARTS DIAG; 99-02 WIRING DIAG - Firebird Nation

Many of us run 315/35-17's in the rear, on 17 x 11.0" 50mm offset wheels. Minor hammering or trimming the jounce bumper brackets may be required. No suspension modifications. There is a "sticky" on the Wheels and Tires forum with complete details.
