Default Im too high up on 20s

I just put my ripped out my matrix lowering springs, put the stock ones back in on my 97gt, then threw the 20s on. I knew i would sit higher but im really high up its like a 4X4 stang. The rubber im running is 255/35/20. The back end isnt too high up but the front is way to high. Any ideas on how to drop it just a little in the front mabe. I dont really know.

Dude you are totally throwing off your final drive ratio!
Your car was probably calibrated w/ the 17" 245/45's and now you have increased your overall diameter, which will make your ratio taller than it is supposed to be, hence SLOWER 0-60, in the 1/4, etc.
