stiffer. I think you are refering to the springs in which you currently
have.

Little info on matching shocks with springs.

Stock height spring you use:
Boge Progas
Bilstein HD's
Koni (any) 
Tokico (any)

Lowered spring use:
Boge Turbogas
Bilstein Sports
Koni (adjustable) 
Tokico (adjustable) 

There it is.
