Apparently, spring rate varies as 4th power of wire diameter, which according to my math makes the row M030 26% stiffer than what was stock on my car.
I'll try to post pics, but this is my first try so it probably won't work.

Spring rate also depends on spring pitch (coils per inch) when unloaded, spring (coil) diameter, and material, of which there are many. So there are missing puzzle pieces.
