Question Progressive spring or shock that starts SOFTER than standard?

Is there a progressive spring or shock out there that starts out SOFTER than standard and then gets progressively stiffer?

Seems like that could be really useful for just getting a better ride on sub-par roads, while getting great performance when you're being more aggressive...

Sorry if this is a stupid question -- I don't know much about shocks/springs.

Thanks.

I believe that H&R sport springs are progressive. Also the springs that come with KW series coilovers have progressive springs too I believe.
