factory spring rates
In a recent thread Nol cited the factory M030 spring rate of 150-200 fr 225-275 rr.
My understanding is that the factory utilizes different spring rates for coupes, cabriolets, m030, turbos, RSR... I'm looking for some information on what would be the stiffest US stock spring rate used and some type of documentation on what that spring rate actually is.
I'm trying to figure out some information that could lead to a technical bulleting for car classification.
Thanks,
Boris

Boris, Good luck on your quest. FWIW I recently spotted the following in the specs page for the H&R coilovers on Gert's site:
"The standard US suspension is 150-200 front and 225-275 rear"
