Default trf201 springs

my used 201 came with some tamy springs,
front: green,red,black
rear: red

what is the stiffness of the springs? i noticed that car like the 501/511 have same color. is there a difference between the two sets.
im trying to understand if my springs are the one from the 501 or the 201.
hope im clear lol

I bought the 501x springs for my 201 (53974 & 53975). These are marked as red, yellow and blue (soft to stiff) for both front and rear.

i'm pretty sure the 201 front spring set (54221) includes brown, black and green springs... So not sure what ones you have...

Perhaps this spring chart can help you? http://www.petitrc.com/reglages/BuggySpringChart.pdf
