Default 99-00 SI spring rate vs: 00 EX

Anyone know if the SI spring rate differs from a 00 EX? What about ride height?Would it be worthwile to replace the OEM EX springs with some from an SI if they were free?

I've already searched, and all I find are FS threads, or threads about other SI's

I think gsr springs would lower your car and are stiffer. That may be the way you want to go. I'm not sure on this.

ride height will be so close to compare it might not be even worth it

same with the si springs, best bet if you want an oem spring is a set from an itr.
