Sadly nothing in the in the X-gear range is that stiff (not even the new Orange)

You want to be looking at something like a Losi silver if you want the car to feel like it did when running #65 yellow fronts on the standard shocks.
I usually ran #70 silver fronts and settled on the Losi Green as an equivalent.
Nick Caro has settled on a Yokomo green front spring which is similar to a Losi Blue which also works great and gives a very direct front end.

I personally would recommend starting with X-gear red rear springs (similar spring from Losi is the Pink if your interested) as this is what I think the majority have settled on as a "base" starting spring.
