For my application the lighter the better because the car is constantly in transition all the weight will transfer. The less weight to transfer the better the springs should have a constant rate through out the compression span. If it was to change it the car would be more stiff which would be better for it. Some people run 600-700 pound springs in there 4th gens that weigh less than 3k. Third gen guys are around 900 to 1200 for springs in the front.
