Default Slp Springs what's what?

I am have decided to go with koni shocks with 1LE springs. Slp sells the progressive rate and the level 2. Which one is the 1LE, also does anyone else sell these springs. Any suggestions on a suspension set up would be great. My goals are to simply have a street car I can take to track days at Road Atlanta. I don't think I need to lower the car to acheive good handling. I am pretty confident the stock car is better than I am driver (for now).

neither of them are the 1LE spring. The 1LE front spring is a 360 lb/in linear rate spring. Both the slp springs are progressive rate. I know one set is 300-440 lb/in and lowers the car 1/2-3/4 in. I am unsure of the rate on the other.
Slp also made a set of " John Ames" race springs that lowered the car 2 fullinches and the front rate was in the 600 lb/in range. I had a set on my 95Z and sold them as they were too much even for a dedicated autox car.
