^ I was the one who had that info in the other thread (taken from Wow's stickied thread in the suspension subforum that you link to) but it turns out those rates for the FR-S may be incorrect as someone pointed out that the data from Eibach's Pro Kit brochure indicate that the FR-S has identical OEM spring rates to those publicized by Toyota Europe/UK for the 86.

Front Spring Rate - 2.3K (128 lbs)
Rear Spring Rate - 3.8K (213 lbs)
