Default Question about Tein Flex Height.

I'm looking to get a Tein Flex with EDCF, but one thing that concerns me is the height. What is the height drop compared to stock. On their web site it states that

FRONT
Approx Lowering
Height Adjust Range

mm/inch
Max/Min(mm/inch)

-22 / -0.87 34/1.34 ⇔ -60/-2.36
REAR
Approx Lowering
Height Adjust Range

mm/inch
Max/Min(mm/inch)

-21 / -0.83 3/0.12 ⇔ -33/-1.3


I don't know if you can go above stock height or if it's lower. This is an issue I have due to the fact that I work in downtown LA and I need to drive me car up driveways and such during the work day. Please let me know how much difference there is compared to stock height and if I can raise the car above the stock height.

how much do you want to raise the car? Look at the Tein web site, they have a pdf of the installation directions on it. The suggested settings drop the front about 1.5 and say you can adjust it + or - 1.5in. there is some more adjustability above that.

Sorry the measurements are going from the top of my head, but wanted to give you a rough idea.

Well I would just like to get it as close as to stock height as possible when going up the parking lot on the driveways. I do scrape @ stock height from time to time if I don't get it at the right angle. The info below is from their website..it states...

FRONT
Approx Lowering Height Adjust Range
-.87 inches Max 1.34/ Min -2.36
REAR
Approx Lowering Height Adjust Range
-.83 Max .12/ Min -1.3

Does this mean that I can go up +1.34 and down -2.36 from stock height or from the lowered height? Can anybody clear this up for me? If these numbers are correct on the fronts I should @ least be able to go up 0.47 inches higher than stock height right?
