would a 2" front drop spring and 3" rear be a good balance? anyone got pics and spring size?

I am not going to chop the frame and bag it.
A 2" front and 3" inch rear drop is going to look just a little lower than stock. Here is a photo from the LMC catalog that shows what the different drops look like. From my experience the 2" front and 3" inch rear looks more like the 1" front and 3" rear pictured in the LMC catalog.
