Koni or Apex Springs

Which springs settles in lower, Koni or Apex? Please I mean springs only. no uprated shocks! They are both a 30mm kit, im just wondering which sits lower between the 2 or is more or less the same?
Picture reference will be nice!
thanks!

here's a pic, sorry for the quality. there is almost zero gap in the rear and the front gap is just a little larger [though the shadow makes it look bigger than it is]. Springs have been on the car for about 5k miles so they are pretty settled.

looks good. question... why is a mini lower at the back than front even though the springs would clearly state 30 mm all round?
