Choosing Correct Fork Springs

We all know the tried and true method for evaluating and selecting our shock spring rate. What I still don't understand is how to properly select my fork spring rate. Anybody?

I feel that balanced suspension is VERY imporant , otherwise neither end will work right . As a basic rule i think if u go from say a 4.9kg to a5.4kg shock spring and your sags r correct u should go up at least one rate on your fork springs. I think u can go up at least a rate or two on your shock spring before u need stiffer fork springs. EG 4.9 to 5.1kg with std fork springs. This may depend on how u like your suspension set up and what type of riding u do.
