For the hatch, the OEM MS3 springs are about 0.5 inch and the accessory mazdaspeed springs are 1.2 inch.

The spring rate for the OEM MSP3 springs or the accessory springs? There a couple of threads on the forum about the spring rates.

The mazdaspeed accessories springs are about 20% stiffer than stock, and approximately a 1-inch drop (YMMV here..) I don't have exact spring rates for you though. The accessory springs have a linear rate as well.

The Mazdaspeed3 springs are approximately equal in stiffness to the accessory springs, though the front springs will likely raise the front of a regular 3 slightly since they were designed for the heavier front of the speed3.

I found this using the search engine (which is taken from the link posted above): http://www.torontomazda3.ca/forum/showthread.php?t=19549&highlight=spring+rates

Looks like you may not find the actual spring rate for the mazdaspeed accessory springs. However, if you're going on the assumption that they are the same as prokits, look at the rates for prokits.

OEM mazdaspeed springs have a different spring rate.

I really don't think the mazdaspeed springs are the same as prokits; Xenon has prokits on his WB hatch, and it looks a bit lower than the mazdaspeed ones. They may be manufactured by Eibach, but it seems to me they are different from the prokits.
