Default Difference in Ground Control made for Bilstein's and Koni's?? (see pictures inside)

I purchased 2 sets of GC, 1 for 92 Civic HB and the other for 96 Civic HB.

Rear springs rates are as followed:
- 92 Civic HB 450lb for Koni Yellows
- 96 Civic HB 430lb for Bilsteins

Why would the springs look different? Will the extra 20lbs in spring matter in appearance? Please see pics below.

430lb rear for Bilsteins


450 rear for Koni's (spring on right)

it has to be the different shocks that you need a different spring rate
