If you dont' adjust and you put shorter tires on, now the car is bottoming out off of big jumps, put taller tires on and the car is rolling over too much and/or traction rolling, For example
Order of importance in my book:
1) Tires
2) Tires
3) Having proper built shocks
4) ride height and camber(tie)
As far as the original question, losi gauge!
If you're bottoming off of jumps, ride height isnt what you want to be adjusting. Ride height wouldnt be where I was looking if the car was rolling either.
