What is the stock ride height?

I'm getting ready to put snow tires one my lowered mini and I need to raise it back to stock ride height for winter. Does anyone know what it is front and rear?

Remember that when you raise the ride height, it will affect your toe on the front wheels increasing toe in. Toe in will wear the inside of the tires quite a bit. Its a good idea to get an alignment to correct the changes in toe.
