 Front: 146 lbs/in (25.5 N/mm)
Rear: 268 lbs/in (45 N/mm)

TRD spirngs have a suprising high rear spring rate (~324lbs/in) for the rear, but the front is close to stock so it should give a sportier but still comfortable ride.

Tanabe is interesting because their rear spring rate is lower than stock, haha.

 hm....weird. I wonder what the theory is on that....to those that have springs what is your rating and how does it compare to stock?? ( whats the handling gain (1-10, 1 being not much difference 10 being great)and whats the comfort loss on scale of 1-10, (1 not much difference 10 really bad) .....
