Icon3 eibach springs 0600.250.0500? what lb/in?

I currently have 200.64.67 eibach springs which equate to 7 inch free length, 2.5" diameter, and 380lb/in. However, I bought replacement springs which were supposed to be 500lb/in. On the spring it says 0600.250.0500 which isnt the conventional way eibach stamps their springs that i am aware of.

Can someone verify that it is indeed 500lb/in?

THANKS

EDIT: NM

0600.250.0500
6" free length
2.5" diameter
500 lbs/in rate

The first spring (200.64.67) is in metric, while the 2nd is in 'merican standard.

Are there really metric and standard versions, or are they the same spring rebadged? For example, does Eibach really have a 380 lbs spring, and is it the same as their 375?

they are really different.

Eibach makes the springs for GC at the specific rates they request.
