Wel it all depends what size wheel and tyre combination you have to start with as this will affect how much clearance you will need for them in the arches and wheter they will catch when on full lock etc on the front.
I couldnt give you a measurement personally as i struggle to get over cats eyes without catching the floor on them!!!:D :D
Its a matter of personal tast really

Cheers

Hi, depends what you are aiming for, i.e for fast cornering the rear needs to be lower than the front by about 1/2 inch. As a starting point adjust the front to about 2 inch from tyre to wheel arch. As has been said before its entirely upto you, as long as its safe and legal

Hi i have 13" wheels fitted with gmax shocks the car feels very jumpy especially when you hit a bump,there is around 2.5" clearance all round is this to high

welcome to the bumpy world of driving a classic mini. 2.5" sounds ok. If you do not carry more than 2 people in the car you can drop it down in 0.5" stages till you are happy with the ride, as has been said previously its up to the individual. (as long as you do not scrape your bum on the speed humps, you'r ok):D
