Butch - the spring rate of the Eibachs are very similar to standard msport springs.
The Eibach springs have a progressive rate, meaning that they start off similar to OEM springs (say for the first 50% of travel), then the more compressed they become the stiffer they become - this is to compensate for the reduced range of travel compared to OEM springs.
OEM springs have a linear spring rate meaning that they maintain a similar stiffness throughout the whole of their range of travel.
