Default Height of spring question

Hey guys Im looking to get some front springs for my car. I have the 18kg skunk2s in the rear and was going to order the 12kg front but noticed they come in different heights. Is this just something that depends on my car or is there some kind of advantage/disadvantage over a shorter/taller spring. Right now i have some cheap coil over springs up front and have my coil overs maxed out to work with my slicks so im thinking of getting a taller spring. Am i thinking the right way??

if the shock is already fully extended, than a taller spring will not help.

no just the adjustable table is maxed out i think they were cheap springs that would like lower from 2 - 5 inches or something ridiculous.
