My car is running Ohlins Road & Track : Ohlins customers 90nN/mm springs on the front (Ohlins R&T 'standard' springs are 70N) and 160N/mm on the rear.
Some people may find the ride to be too firm. That said, my wife (who drives a very softly sprung KIA Sorento) doesn't mention it.
For me the spring rates (and the damping) are excellent, but I do track my car several times each year and it's been modified as a fast road / occasional track setup.
From experience if you want decent suspension changing the dampers is a must, not just springs.

Ohlins R&T are one of the best coilovers - at a price of course. I suggest the same coilovers if the budget permits.
