Default Strange Ride Height on '96 Civic EX

I just got my Tein S.Tech's w/ KYB GR-2 struts installed on my coupe. The Ride Height is totally off from what it said it would be (1.9" front and 1.7" rear) seems like the front is 1.7" and the rear is 1.9" but I don't understand, I watched the shop install it and I know for a fact that it was installed correctly with all the bolts and bump stops in...can anyone tell me whats wrong?

usually eibach's do that but all the other drops i see on hondas are the opposite with a lower front.
