Front Springs Only?

With 18"s, I'm ok with the gap in the back since it's an even 2 fingers around. But the giant gap in the front is starting to drive me nuts. Can I get away with just putting CT springs in the front to even it out or will the different springs be too weird?

The Comptech would be a big drop for the front. If you have the Comptechs front and back, there is a rake (front is lower than the rear), so if you left the rear stock, it would be a BIG rake.
A better idea would be the H&R OE springs up front. Tuff Gong has that setup, I think.

H&R Sports 2 finger gaps at front and 1 1/2 finger gaps at back, to my eyes the rake is unnoticable.

Yep, search archives the HR OE front, stock back looks surprisingly balanced. Cheaper too!

Strange, no one seems to have the H&R OE Sports in stock. Guess there's a serious shortage...

SimTypeS is right, I installed the H&R OE's in the front only. Here is the link to the thread.

The pic below and most of the pics in the Imagestation album are with the OE front.
