I'm getting the tein basics.

I'm going to buy the tein basic today. My question, it says the min drop is 2.1, with that in mind do I have any wheel gap? I want to know because sometimes I want to raise it alittle higher so I can get a alignment or for other reasons. Before, when I just had springs on my cl, I remember I couldn't make it up the ramp because it was too low. My cl didn't have coilovers though. Is there a way to raise it up to 1.5 inches? Also do I need a camber kit for the tein basics?

All true coil-overs are height adjustable - you can probably get it 1" higher than stock if there are enough threads on the units.

I don't think its recommended that you change the height on the coilovers all of the time. I could see that would strip out the collars pretty quick. The main difference between the SS and Basic's from Tein is that the SS has a 16-way adjustable damping levels.
