Default Goldline spring rates anyone have any clue?

When I bought my eg hatch it had the 2.25" or 2.50" drop Goldline springs on it and I have yet to change them out because they actually ride fairly well to me. Anyways I would like to know what the spring rates are for these springs anyone have any clues?

ClubSi's Hondaman says EK rates for Goldline 2.5" springs are 320/190. For your EG, it is probably around that area if his numbers are correct, perhaps a little lower since your chassis weighs less.

I dont think those rates sound like race rates? haha I would like something a little stiffer to be honest but I will just have to live with that for now.

If I told you that they were actually 500 f 450 r would you be happy with them again? Seems like you're more interested in the numbers rather than the actual handling of your car.

You tell us, are these springs any good? Do the do what you want them to?

What are you talking about dude Im happy with these springs for one thing I didnt have to buy them and secondly they ride pretty good just not the best springs for racing. But as I said before I will just have to live with them for now because I dont feel like spending the money to buy something else. So yeah if you did say they had higher rates I would have been happier but I pretty much knew ahead of time they were not that stiff. I just wanted to know the rates of them. So how about discussing the rates of my springs instead of trying to make me happy because you want to tell me they were 500f 450r.
