Default Ultra low king springs safe?

Hay i currently have a set of super lows in my 02 impreza but the front seems to be that touch higher than the rear. So i was going to put ultra lows in the front.

Just wondering is there is any safety issues or any other issues with the ultra low king springs?
Thanks for your help

Mismatched springs = gay
Lowering springs that lower 50mm = struts will wear out faster

Technically there is nothing wrong with what you are doing though. If you are that concerned about heights, I would be running adjustable coilovers rather than constantly changing out springs. (i.e. put in new fronts, rear will look too high etc etc)

If you're already running lows I don't see a problem apart from height issues (100mm) I've got king standard in front and low's in the rear of my Liberty to even it out as the Bilsteins seem to be a shorter strut than standard.
