OEM JCW Spring Rates Info

Looking for the springs rates on both the:
- OEM JCW Cooper springs (front + rear)
- OEM JCW Clubman springs (front + rear)
Working on a new suspension package, but need a firm reference on current specifications.

I don't know what the OEM spring rates are but I've been researching a full suspension upgrade for several months now. To make a long story short, I'm planning on using Werkin Mini, San Antonio, to install AST 5100's coil overs, Vorshlog Variable Camber Plates and Swift springs at the 350 lb rate for both front and rear. I may do a slight delta front and rear but haven't made the final decision yet.

I was planning on starting this on 1 July but I'm now considering doing both an OS Giken Limited Slip Differential and their clutch on 1 July instead and do the suspension changes in October or November.

I'll watch your post and see what pops up. Good luck.
