More tuning options i suppose?

The only difference I can see so far is the overall thickness of the wire. The P,B,W are 0.50 mm and the Y, G, R are 0.45 mm. Does the increase in wire thickness (P,B,W) mean its a slightly harder spring rate than the (Y,G,R)?

On a side note, what is the spring rate for the kit stock spring? Medium?
F1 cars on rubber tires, can make use of the heavier side springs
