Default skunk2 spring rates?

I got Skunk2 adjustable springs on my teg. Does anyone know the spring rates on these? Or how I can find out?

I was curious about this also. I just got my Skunk2 coilovers and it's got a few numbers on the springs. Anyone care to translate? Here's the numbers:

Front: 0700.250.010
Rear: 0700.250.008

Does that mean 250lbs?

0700-means that they are 7" springs
250-means that the inner diameter is 2.5"
010-means they are 500ft lbs.
008-means they are 400ft lbs.

They are either 500f/400r or they are 400f/500r. I had thought that they were 400f/500r because they were more drag racing springs, and the stiffer rear rates would prevent rear end squat off the line, correct me if I'm wrong?
