This isn't a hard and fast rule but more of a guidance.

It tends to be linear so the harder the spring, the thicker the oil but as above, there is no set rule.

If the track was low grip and bumpy you would be thin oil, soft springs.

If a track was a high grip and flat you would be thicker oil and harder springs.

However in off road you get a mix of both, especially on astroturf where you have bumps but also high grip. You need a happy medium. Refer to setup sheets on petit rc to give yourself an idea of what people are using.
