Default rear ws6 vert springs question

Ok I currently have eibach prokit springs on kyb agx adjustable all around. The back end is a little too low for my taste with my drags in back as I'm thinking of going with a 28" tire instead of a 26. I found a set of ws6 vert rear springs for super cheap. I put them on the other day and I swear it looked twice as high as my stock springs I had. Are the vert rears stiffer than the hatchback rears?

Here's hoe the car sits with the drags, as you can see it's kinda low and doing a 28 would seem impossible as is



If the vert springs don't work I'm just gonna order some strano springs instead, but figure I would ask on here first

They shouldn't be any different. I have 2 ws6 verts. Is anything hitting in the wheel well or something holding it up? Take a picture of it with the stock springs. Here's how mine sat with the stock springs.

Ok I prolly won't have a chance to switch out springs until Friday or Saturday though cuz of work but I'll post a picture when I do.

It didn't look like anything was hitting or anything was in the way. I set them the same way I set my eibach springs. They just sat a lot higher lol

Get yourself a set of adjustable spring perches from Wolfe motorsport
