I posted Intrax spring rates some time ago somewhere around here.......IIRC, the max rate is very close, but my subjective butt says the Eibachs "ramp up" much quicker. I do know for a fact that Eibach spring steel is noticeably (visually) more heavy-duty than Intrax spring steel.

I still haven't been able to pry spring rate info out of H&R, but if I recall, they are very similar to Eibachs - but they dropped rather unevenly when I had mine (the front dropped ~2" while I only got ~.5" out back, and the driver's side of the car sat a good .25" lower than the passenger side, so the car looked lop-sided).
