It's not that the H&R's drop it lower in the back, it just appears lower due to the higher arching of the front fenders. Take a real good look at the profile of your car. The front fenders are cut higher than the rear, giving you the illusion of an uneven drop. I would drop it evenly. The last thing you want is a car with a huge rake towards the front. That will through off the handling characteristics of it pretty bad.
That said, when I'm showing my car at events, I calibrate my lowering module (airmatic) so that the car appears level at all 4 corners. But when I drive the car, it looks lower in the rear.
