The higher spring rate version of the same length spring may have less travel which may or may not be a factor depending on the rate you choose and the ride height you desire. This is due to the fact that in some instances a larger diameter wire is used to achieve the increased spring rate. A larger spring diameter wire with the same number of coils results in a taller bottoming point and less travel. Imagine a stack of 10mm wires vs a stack of 11mm wires...
