Default Comparison springs of 5.0 XK and 5.0 XKR?

Hi all,
I would like to install springs from the XKR in my XK 5.0 with CATS suspension.

Is it true that the XKR springs exactly fit - and are a little harder and provide a little lowering? How much lower will that be approximately?

Thx in advance! bernd

The front springs are 38% stiffer, the rears 24% stiffer. I believe there's no difference in ride height (but I stand ready to be corrected). I'm not sure if the dynamic suspension would be happy though - the XKR may have different programming to match the stiffer springs?
