Delphi And SME Tonearms

I've just purchased SME IV tonearm for my Oracle Delphi turntable. This tonearm is rather heavy (but man it is beautiful!). I wonder if I should change the spring on tonearm side (rear spring on the right side of the turntable...the tonearm side..) to the stiffer spring (I belive it is white one. I have it from the Oracle Maintanance Kit I ordered two months ago).
I noticed a lot of people here have the same combo: Delphi and SME tonarm. I would appreciate your suggestions!
Thanks in advance~

In your maintenance kit there is suppose to be documentation. For Mk IV and V's with a counterweight the suggested springs for SME IV, V and 345 are:

Left front, Yellow
Left rear, Yellow
Right side Green

Without the counterweight it would be white, yellow, green.
