Kyosho Big Bore Shock Springs Green Long Length 95mm 11-1.4 - Package of 2

These springs are using a smaller diameter wire (1.4 vs. 1.6) as well as a lower turn count than the older big bore shock springs. This effectively allows the spring to be lighter than the older shocks as well as changes the characteristics of its action.

Explanation for the spring rates in the charts above:

The part number of the Kyosho spring has the wire thickness and number of turns included in it.

For example:

IF350-716 equates to:

7 turns of 1.6 thick wire.

This can be extrapolated to all the springs and you will see the pattern evolve for the spring rates.

Thicker wire = stiffer spring

More turns  in wire = softer spring

Just think of this like a spring is a piece of wire. If you straightened out the wire and held it on one end, the longer it is, the easier it would bend by pushing on it from the opposite end. The same would hold true for a thinner piece of wire, it would be easier to bend as well. This is how springs are actually working. The longer the wire the easier it is to bend and therefore the softer spring rate it has. An advantage of lower turns and thinner wire is you can create a spring with lighter weight vs. a spring with thicker wire and more turns. Keep this in mind when choosing springs to run as well.

I hope this explanation helps rid some confusion about how the above charts work.
