It's a bit tricky to measure at those parts of a car. Could anyone tell me what is distance from ground to the wheelarch. Mine on lever in normal position: Front 65-66cm rear 60.5cm. I suspect that front is too high and front became also a bit bouncy (spheres are brand new)

Correct height is exactly on the midpoint betwen lowest and highest position. On Xantia MkII this should be about 67.5 cm front, 62.5 cm rear, from the ground to the wheelarch, with 185/65 R15 tyres. Mine is a bit lower (66.3 cm front, 61.5 cm rear), I'll adjust it in the future, but there's no big difference.
