Setting the ride height

[aerosam]

Guys, following on from my recent post regarding front springs, i now have a lovely pair (oo-er) of 350lb springs installed on my front shocks.

Now i need to set the ride height, at the moment the spring seats are at the lowest height setting and the car is sitting about 3" off the floor, this is obviously too low. what is the correct ride height then? I'm guessing about 4 - 4.5" is that right?

I need to get thr front spot on to take measurements for the shocks for my rather bespoke rear suspension. (BMW semi trailing arms)
