While I lack the equipment to measure spring rates, I suspect that the difference in rates is not great enough to have an appreciable effect on handing but it is enough to have make a differenct in trim height. Also, it's possible that the degree to which the spring is arched may also play into this.
All I know if my 95 came with blue dot springs on both ends so I took all the shims out of the front and, and in the rear, moved all the shims to the bottom and got the car lower but not so low that I lack ride travel.
