I really don' t know myself, but I would check this out before believing it.
Thinking it through, while both are heavier than the B roadster, the
difference between the two is that the extra weight on the GT is on the
rear, while the extra weight of the C is all in the front. I wouldn't be
surprised if they had different spring rates from each other, front and
rear. Probably at least one end of each is common with the B roadster, but
it's probably the opposite ends.
