Yep, inboard, true-coilover spring rates don't need to be as high as the outboard OEM-type springs. This is an approximation but a 10K OEM spring is about equal to somewhere between 7-8K on a true-type coilover on the damper. They're twin tube too so they may be a bit more comfortable than a Mono.
I run a 12K/10K setup and I don't think I'd go higher than that for a street-driven vehicle with normal/crappy roads. These may actually be somewhat comfortable on nasty highways.
Looking at the kit, it's definitely OEM spring location in the rear. What I'd like to know is do you still have to take the rear shock out to adjust rear damping if you don't want to drill holes in your car? Other than that, good price point and I'm sure it'll persuade a few folks to save a bit and shell out for these vs. the cheap Taiwan/Chinese shocks.
