PSS9 Height Setting??

I have just recently snapped on a set of PSS9 (before winter, stupid of me) on to my E92 thinking that it is height adjustable so thought I should be fine. When the shop told me that the front has been set to the highest I was surprised how low it actually was (tucked as shown on the picture below).

While the back can be setup so that it is even higher than stock ZSP, I am wondering if any of you guys had experience with PSS9 to tell me if this is normal? Is there any other springs I can replace it with to make it higher?

Even at the highest setting, the fronts will be a bit low. It's normal.

This is at "almost all the way up" for the fronts:

Thanks for the speedy reply NiVeDh!! The ride of this coilover is amazing though, I had it on yesterday and I couldn't stop driving it. It was actually that GOOD! hah

I now have it set on 5F/6R and it is more comfortable than stock but handles like a dream at the corner.

Yes, I know exactly what you mean! I have it at 4F/6R and it's perfect, even on pothole-infested Atlanta roads.

Took another day time pic today, still can't stop driving the car

Maybe i will lower the back a little just to even it out.
