Green rear is the next step up and is what I was running with the Tekno 8x1.3/1.4 pistons matched with green front.
From what I can tell from the multitude of spring combos I've tried on this, if you keep about a 1.7 in/lb spread between the front & rear, your springs are balanced. From there just choose how stiff you want your setup.
Green springs had great balance... 1.7 spread. Now Durango white/black front spring and Tekno pink spring. Again, perfect balance and it happens to be a 1.7 in/lb spread.

Some people like a smaller spread giving more spring rate to the rear, but many have said that the greens gave very good flight and handling.
I think f/r weight % and/or wheel weights would be pertinent to finding the spread that works. I have Tekno grey/green and posted my weights a while ago.
