The coil spring rates are usually stamped on the spring, either on top of the first coil (you'll have to take them apart), or screen-printed onto the side.
The 600# springs are way too big for that car IMHO.
Please let us know what you find out.

It sounded high to me too, but I did not know what the Motion Ratio was when I got the car and that's what the dealer told me it was.
I was advised today that springs that had been taken off other cars and tested, ranged from 350-375.
