Those are aftermarket Coil over springs and shocks. The spring looks weak for the car you have. You'll need a higher spring rate. Check the manufacturer of your springs and shocks and call them to discuss options.
Determine front weight per Fang 16 video. Jack up front of car. Loosen adjusting nut on bottom of shock to relieve spring load. Remove shock and spring. Measure diameters, length, and coil wire thickness. See below and call Speedway. Buy springs only if shocks are good. Reinstall and adjust nut for ride height.
Adjusting the nut downward will lower the ride height. It will not change ride characteristics. If you don't believe us, try it and you'll learn for yourself. A number of people posted "you need a stiffer spring, higher load rating, or a higher spring rate". They all mean the same thing. You have too much weight up front for the springs you have. CHANGE THE SPRINGS.
