The MOG-5662 is stiff front springs, good for performance, and the MOG-5665 are the rear springs that I think most cars came with.

The MOG-5608s are really soft front springs, not performance, and I'm not sure of the MOG-cc635s.

I just went with MOG-5660 front springs (not as stiff as the 5662s) and MOG-6377 rear springs (stiffer than the 5665s but have lower installed heights). All together, the car rides nice and tight, is pretty comfortable over moderate road conditions, and sits about a 1/2 inch lower than the 5662 front and 5665 rear springs would have it sitting.
