Bodykit shouldn't be an issue.
you have two ways, either trial and error or gauging how low the car is..
If you could take some photos of the side of the car on flat level surface that would be great, would give an idea of just how low the car is itself.
as a rule, there is about an inch between tyre and arch if the car is lowered 40mm at the front.. 60mm tends to be at the arch with 55 profile tyres.
What car is it (engine and spec) as that helps too
