Standard springs

Hi can anyone please tell me the standard spring rate for a 3.2s boxster
I’ve changed over to coilovers that have 400Lb front springs and it’s horrendous
Any help appreciated

On my Ohlins, I had 450 front, 550 rear. Loved it.
What coilovers are you using? is the damping/valving correct for the spring rate?

Hmm. that sounds like a damping/valving issue, to me. You're sure they're 400lb, not 400 kilo? ;-)
