      Are ws6 ones supposed to look kinda streched at the base, where they sit on the axle?

          The larger spacing between coils near the bottom of the spring indicates a progressive or dual rate spring (most rears are this way).
          If your looking for specific spring rates heres a link with some good info.

          Also keep in mind that after Jan `00 all WS6's used the same spring as the regular Trans Am's. The 1LE Springs were discontinued after that.

          EDIT; Sorry forgot the link

              The Springs themselves won't change the alignment, but the dissassembly of the ball joint will require the car to be realigned.
