Default Stock Spring Rate?

Does anyone know what the factory spring rate is from a two door 97 civic, i've looked everywhere but can't find them. The reason I ask is because I have skunk2 springs on with factory struts (2.5/2.25" lowered), which is not the comfort I like. I'm looking into getting some Ksport (10F/6R) full coilovers so it'll ride like a new car (the adjustability is a plus as well). Anyone wanting to give any reviews on the ride comfort/performance will be appreiciated.

The stock spring rates on my 99 civic which should be the same are roughly 2.86 F/1.43 R. You will in no way have a stock ride with those coilovers

what i'm riding on right now is the equivilent of probably 20/20 because my struts are gone and my car is too low to the ground, i also noticed that my car has sagged since the install. so i figure it will be like riding on air if compared to what i have now with the adjustability of the ksports, i will probably set the struts on almost all the way soft.
