why not just measure as I did? Tire diameters are NOT exactly the same if you have the 19" or staggered option, plus inflation pressure pressure as well as tire wear comes into play.

I believe the fender flares are the same in all models it's only that in the M Sport they are in body color.

...I just went out and measured as you did and got exactly the same numbers so, THERE IS NOT ONE MM DIFFERENCE in height btwn the Standard and M Sport suspensions. There, done, period.
