Default Please help asap!!!!

I lowered my car and the front is slammed while the rear barely dropped any. I think I put the front spring on the rear. Can somebody please go to this website http://www.sprintspring.com/springs.html look at the first selection of spring...are the ones standing up in the picture for the front? and the ones laying down for the rear?

the taller springs are in the front.
shorter in the rears.

Try reading the box and instructions next time.
