I make it 2 3/8", center to center.
A couple of words of advice on the new springs:-
Make sure that you don't completely tighten up the shackle bolts until
the car is resting on the ground, per the manual.
Don't get too concerned about ride height until you've driven the car
around a bit. Brand new springs sometimes settle a bit.
Good luck!
