Default tein basics lowest setting

I have tein basics and I adjusted the height to the lowest perch possible.....and I still have 1 inch gap between the top of the tire to the bottom of the fende....

my tires arent even tucked =/........is something wrong or is this how low the basics will go?

this might sound dumb, but did you release the ebrake?

i had a friend who installed some h&r's not too long ago, and afte he was done he was wondering why it was sitting so damn high... later that night when he was about to drive out to give it a test run, once he released the ebrake lever the car sat like a extra inch lower for some reason. im no suspension expert but give it a shot if you havent.

e-brakes have nothing to do with suspension.... if your tire gets any closer to the fender then you have to worry about mashin ur fenders up all the time in driveways and bumps and such. id say one inch aint bad
