[Shotimes] Spring Rates

[Johnsho92]

Thanks Everybody for straighten this out for me. 
Thanks!!   

Anyone tried to mix and match their spring rating and
hieght to get what they want?  Any Danger in that?

I want to find the best match, prefferrably highest
rating & loweest hieght..    

Next on another car, I want to have the same setup,
except for the rears to be slightly higher, ie.
slightest slant.   

Right now my 95'MTX slooks like it's slanted backwards
with the rears too low.  And they're pretty new OEM
springs...     Strange..   

Any Sugestions and opinions?  Thanks a lot! :)
