None of which has anything to do with the springs...

Find me a person on the planet who has Kings and a QUALITY shock combo (like Bilstein or Koni) and is unhappy with them. If you're unhappy with them it's probably because your shocks weren't up to the task of controlling them properly, and the lesser rate, lesser quality springs suited your under performing shocks better.

There's a reason why Kings are the largest performance spring manufacturer in the southern hemisphere, choice of thousands of race teams around the world (including WRC teams), and OEM supplier to the two most respected suspension brands in Australia, DMS and MCA.

Sorry if I sound blunt, but it's becoming annoying the number of people who claim that "I fitted Kings spring to standard road shocks and my handling didn't improve, therefore Kings must be crap..." when it's nothing to do with the springs.
