Icon2 Ride Height Issues

Hey people I know this may sound dumb but, I own a 89 civic sedan and recently installed Tein Lowering Springs. Now my problem is that the specs say the ride is suppose to be 1.5/front 1.4/rear but my Car sits lower from the rear than the front, could it be that I've installed the springs wrong or is this the way there suppose to be. I believe it's suppose to lower from the front right? Plz HELP. Thank You.

The thick springs go in the front and thin go in the back right?

Your right - The thicker wire goes up front.
I have to ask if they are really Tein? I have the same problem with my e-Bay specials. Check out my (old) thread...
