I always recommend starting high and working your way down until you are satisfied.

I have a 96 with the tein basics. I put it about 2/3 of the way down and had no problems and didn't even have to roll the fenders. Not sure how it will work with your offset tho.

It's going to be personal preference, start from the top and lower i until you like it.

I promise the lowest those will go you probably won't like.

That's why I always recommend starting from the top.. It doesn't really matter though, you'll end up at the same point eventually.
