Put it on jacks (both front tires off the ground) and try putting it on and get back to us if it still doesn't fit.

Hmmm...after thinking about it for a while, the Teins are height adjustable?
If they are, one side might not be level - or at least like your stock suspension.
If you can, spin down one of the sides to see if this helps.
