can anyone tell me the spring rates on a stock 87-93 lx or gt?

Approx 420 lb/in in front and 200 lb/in in the rear.

Approx numbers only because both front and rear were/are progressive rate springs.

Yea it seems like on the fox bods like ours the rear always sits lower, I wanted to firm up the suspension on mine and was looking at the eibachs with the air bag but was curious if thay set was ok for daily driving?
