Default Any manufacturer sell stiffer rear springs than front?

other than custom, are there any reputable non-ghetto , off the shelf springs for a manufacturer where the rears are stiffer than the fronts for ITR road racers?

Tein owners have been arguing against the GC/Koni people for a long time that Tein offers custom spring rates (counter argument to the GC folks who are using custom Eibach spring rates). I suppose that would be something to consider. Personally, I think GC/Koni is the way to go. You can swap rates in no time whenever you want and Eibach springs are cheap and everywhere.

I just ordered 400F/500R from GC for my GC/Koni Yellow setup. 339 for the GCs w/ custom rates, 100-150 for extra sets of custom springs.

get hypercoils. You tell them the rate and the spring height and width. they arnt that expensive either. My buddy uses them on his SCCA IT-S 944. excellent spring.
