Default GROUND CONTROL COIL-OVER question???

so I put these coil-overs on my car about 8 months ago(or so) and I just remembered that the instructions that came with them didn't tell which go in the front and the back. Two seemed to be thicker than the others. So I was wondering which go where?? I'm pretty sure I put them on right, but I wanted to make sure.
It seems when I try to take turns quickly and accelerate out of them I can never get traction. I know an lsd would help, but one of my tires spins out of control everytime so..... I was thinking maybe it had to do with me being an idiot and putting the springs in the wrong place.

Thanks

the thicker springs go in the front and the thiner ones go in the back. w

with the traction part, its because of ethier the left or right tire will shift to the lesser weight and make that tire spin. so if you want to fix that problem just go get an lsd. or get wider tires

well, i took my skunks and swapped 'em around. it really isn't that bad, but the rear will slide a little better. it's great for auto-x, but be careful!
