Why do I have a bigger gap between my fender and front wheel than I do on my rears?

Default I have vogtlang springs and koni shocks (same thing)
My front is a tad bit higher then my back. I always think it affects braking because of the imbalance making the car nose dive when I brake into a turn.

Default My Stasis streetsports came set like that
the front is like a 2 finger gap, the rear is more like 1.5 finger. You can see it a little bit in my picture poster. I didn't fuss with it this year, but when I lower it back down next spring I'm going to make them equal.
