the spring rates they come with are 8k-f and 6k-r

I think they come with a set of 9k-f and 7k-r also, so he may have even switched to those spring rates.

take the springs off the coilovers. its writen on the tops/bottom of the spring in a silver marker. (it might be worn off by now tho)

you more than likely have 8/6
