Default looking for info on WS6 Springs

I just came across a set of springs from a '00 WS6. I'm thinking of having them installed with new shocks on my '97 formula. I have no desire to lower the car, as it is my DD and the road here can be bad.

Anyone know if this will be worthwhile? Or what the rates are on these?

TIA

all depends on if they are real WS6 springs, or just some springs that came on the later 2000 WS6 cars.

as in 2000 GM water downed the "ws6 suspension" to just swaybars/rims tires, instead of the springs, and shocks, that came on the 98-early 00 cars.

My 1998 ws6 sits about 1/2" lower than my friends with 01-02 cars, not sure if thats due to age, or spring rate.

any part numbers you can post up?
