Amazing OEM sport springs

I can't believe the specs of the old Saab Enduro!
The car came stock w/ front springs w/ a theor springrate of 475lb and rear springs w/ a 525lb rate! That's almost Intrax level rates! The coil are actually thicker.
The other specs are amazing too:
tires: 225/50/15's
wheels: 15x7.5
shocks: bilsteins
alignment specs: +2.25 caster, -1.25 camber, 2.5mm toe in
Those are some amazing changes in suspension and it was stock. Does anyone know what offset the wheels were? What was the end track of the wheels? If these were the correct specs, those couldn't have been light wheels and the small positive offset had to put alot more pressure on the wheel bearings. So all out there talking about how a slightly heavier wheel or using non-hubcentric wheels may cause wheel bearing problems, I'd think it would be unlikily if saab designed this car w/ the above setup.
Shoot, I wonder where I could find a set of those springs...
