The associated springs are 3.85lb/in according to their website and your chart., which woud make them much harder than the above schumacher springs if the schumacher rates are in lb/in.

Btw I'm talking about the old style schumacher springs which do not he quite the same rates as the ones you have listed.
I believe the old schumacher spring rates are different to the new ones.
