Spring Rates
I did a search, spring rates for the sport and luxury are the same, anyone know the actual spring rates themselves off the top of their head?

I thought the sport had a stiffer suspension than the base IS? I guess it's not all that clear, though. All the IS brochure says is "sport-tuned suspension".

Thread where someone stated spring rates are the same:

So I guess no one knows the stock spring rates...searched a little more and a couple of others have asked the same question with no responses/replies.

Out of curiosity, are they shocks, or struts?

are there any visible differences between the 2? i always thought struts went inside the springs and shocks went elsewhere... like on pick up trucks.
