Apologies if you have already done this, but it's worth checking all 4 springs because, as well as front to rear, there may be differences side to side as on the gen 3.
Ok so basically and without having done the actual maths a set of gen4 springs on a gen3 will roughly give you a lift of approximately 15 to 20 mm give or take as the basic dimensions are close enough but you gain thicker wire diameter and more free length. Useful for those looking at something like that. Now in the absence of published details one has to make assumptions about the negative 45mm from HR. Firstly it's safe to say that they will be shorter than the factory springs and probably quite a bit stiffer too. Given that the gen3 is already on shorter and softer springs it might not be a reach to think that the lowering will therefore potentially be closer to 25 to 30mm rather than the negative 45. I'm going to keep looking for some dimensions for the HR springs though because they are not cheap enough for trial and error. Thanks.

Just thrown some numbers into a calculator and the front is 22.2N/mm on the 3 and 27.1N/mm on the 4 so that would confirm a mild lift using gen4 springs on the gen3.
