Thumbs down springs question

I kno that theirs a search button but wasnt satisfied with the info.......

I have Ksports springs and my rear tuck, and talk about false adverstisement. Suppose to drop 2" all around but it looks like 1.5" front and 2" rear....Even tho I have 2 12's in da trunk but still.......... Any1 has an evened out drop without the tucking? and which brand is installed?

take the subs out and park on a even surface and see if it evens out. i know with nothing in the trunk my sprint springs and kyb gr2's are pretty even and they are 2" all the way around. if not then maybe cut the front or see if you can get stiffe struts for the rear or different springs.

Turn the front upside down.
