Tein springs compared to H&R and Hsport?

Someone wants to trade me their Tein springs for my HSports. I would rather trade for H&R. I want a slightly stiffer spring than HSport and a lower drop to. I thought the H&R would be perfect but I know nothing about the drop or stiffness of Tein.
Need help.
Mario

from the sticky, i believe the TEIN rates were pretty similar to the H-Sports.

if you want lower, how about the M7 springs?

from what i have heard fro M7, M7 springs are low but softer than HSports. i wanted something lower and stiffer than the hSports i already have
