without the spring rates, they are purely just for look.

Canuck Motorsports uses progressive rate springs (eibach does the same thing)

the further they compress, the firmer they get....they dont have a linear rate

i might have tried these i didnt have coilovers and prokits sitting around...

I saw those when shopping but choose to go with the TRD system rather than piecemeal a system together for multiple suppliers of unknown reputation/quality/performance.
