No, put stock shocks and springs on all 4 corners until you have everything ready to be re-installed again.

So you don't die from such an imbalanced set up. Even if you "make" them the same height, they have much different rates and 100% of coilovers are meant to work as a set of 4, not mixed with OEM stuff.


...or you could just install OEM shocks and springs in the rear and leave the aftermarket stuff up front and take some corners aggressively and let us know the results. Your choice.
