I love the MazdaSpeed spring rate fort and rear springrate of the tein h!
can I have problems if I use it?

except the fact that the rear will be softer and lower, you won't have any probelms.

oh...... thought you're talking about the speed3 one. well i still think it won't be a problem. But the rear will be soft and you might risk of getting more understeer when you corner

you can do it.
Although, I am unsure if the front / rear spring rates will be a good match

Definately it can be done....but not necessarily wise.If the spring rates are close it may be okay, but I don't think it's recommended.

the mazdaspeed acc rate is 160 fr 170 rear
the tein h rate is 148 fr 220 rear

so I thing the match is perfect front 160---rear 220

Why wouldn't you just put the Teins on the front as well. They're .1" lower and 12 off in the rate. I think its a waste of time and money putting the two together. I would understand more if you wanted the rear of the mazdaspeed spring because they drop more.
