Default Rear coils to match EVO Front Coilovers?

For Christmas I plan to get myself the EVO 12" front coilover system and I was thinking about the rear setup. It'll be a while before I can consider doing the rear evo-lever so I wanted to know about a coil in the rear to match the ride of the front system. I already have the EVO/King shocks currently and I'll leave those on the rear when I go to the front coilovers but I'd like to replace the coils in the rear.

I plan to ask EVO about it tomorrow but thought I would get the advice of you guys as well. I have Skyjacker coils right now and I don't care too much for the ride quality.

What do you guys think? Can I get a rear coil to match the rate of the front? Go to King directly for this? Is it worth it? Thanks for your help!!

Contacting EVO is probably the best bet.I think there are a couple on here just running front coilovers, maybe they'll see this and chime in.

I planned to do the front coilover with the rear bolt-in king shocks, overall a nice ride

Yea, like I said, I have the bolt in king shocks now and I love them but once I go coilover in the front I wanted the spring rate to match as much as possible. I really dont care for the Skyjacker coils either.
