TL Springs vs TLS Springs

I'm Curious. How much firmer are the stock TL springs when compared to the stock TLS springs?

Firmer. Sit in one and you'll know what I'm talking about. Much less of a bouncy feel in the Type-S. Worth the upgrade? Depends on what you want ... performance or luxury?

Its hard to say how much though, I mean its a combo of all the different parts to give the different ride. All I know is my friends stock 01 CLS rides MUCH rougher than my '99TL with the lower Comptech springs - after riding in that, I was glad I had a TLP because I couldnt handle that all the time in a "luxury" car.

The springs might be the same (don't quote me). But I think the firmer ride from the type-s is probably from the thicker sways(mainly the rear sway) (I compared type-s sways to a 2dr '01 accord) and the bigger wheels with slightly less rubber.
