Default Thinking about changing springs

Hey all, I'm trying to lower my 60' (1.89 so far on ET Streets) and my ride height may be hurting me. I have LG G2 springs on the car and she is sitting pretty low, cant even get a floor jack under the car without having it up on 2x4s. I've been looking at stock SS/WS6 springs to raise the car up a bit and still have good handling on street tires. Would that also help me at the track? Thanks.

Lowering the car is not good for launching it. Sould probably wait more than eight hours before posting again, Im sure this was still plenty high in the forum for people to see it when they get on in the evening. Did you at least relocate the LCA's?
