    Consequently, a stiffer spring requires more work from a strut/shock 
because it is trying to overcome much more force from the stiffer spring.  
Thus, a soft strut with a stiff spring will not only self destruct, but not 
provide an adequate amount of dampening either.  I don't know how ride 
comfort comes into this for you, but it is also consequental that stiffer 
shocks and springs _typically_ will result in less ride comfort (more 
harshness and vibration)  If its a stiff suspension you want, that is what 
you'll get...
