is it ok to mix springs??

would it be alright to just install maxspeeds or H&Rs in the front and use the stock springs in the rear, with new struts all around?
i'm asking because i want to lower the front more than the rear and considering that these springs are supposed to be comparable to the stock ride, would that be feasible if i used new struts all around?

thanks.

I wouldnt see why not so long as you use the same springs for the front and same for the back, but I dont know for sure.

i guess you could do that but i dont think you will be able to buy just 2 springs unless you get them used.
