As a guide the inside lip the top of the front arch should be 23mm higher than the top of the rear arch when measured on level ground.

Thanks for that but is there a correct height for the top of the front arch from the ground or top of tyre?

A good baseline is floor to lip 25.5" F and 25" R (euro height)...measured through centre of wheel on flat ground. Only problem with this is there can be discrepancies in the body work left and right, but it will get you in the right area. Always good to have a realignment done after messing with steering and suspension, they can then set the height from the chassis to ground measurements and get it much more accurate
Cheers
