Which weight of FORK OIL is heavier??   5w or 10w?

I am 250 and will be installing stiffer fork springs.  I want to change the fork oil weight to a heavier thick weight.  is 5w or 10w thicker/heavier?

Thanks!

10W is heavier.  Marzocchi or Showas?

SO fork oil weight is the opposite of engine oil weight, the higher the number the thicker fork oil is?

Showas.  How does fork brand make a difference?

Actually, it's the same 10w has higher viscosity than 5W and so on
