not a good idea at all, your ride is going to suck ass, different spring rates and all the other factors will make you wish you wouldn't have been a cheap ass and just waited to get a full set.

these are typically the people who take auto-x more seriously than marrage

I've got 450 front, 350 rear rght now, and I'mthinking of bumping the rears up to 400 or better... It's all personal preference if you know the spring rates.
