Mix n Match H&R Super Sport and H&R VTF

Hello everyone.
Im in the proccess on going from H&R Super Sport Springs to H&R VTF adjustable ones.
Now the only reason for this is to go lower on the rear only. Front is good for me but I want a tad lower on the rears.
Now, here is the situation. Im thinking on just swaping the rears and keep the front, and per thir website the VTF front will go as low as the SS, 1.4in.
SO even less reason for me to change the front. AND the front are a pitta to change compare with rears. I dont want to the proccess if I dont need to.
So, should I be worry riding with Supert Sport in the front and VTF on rear? At least they are the same brand but different color

Should be fine, but I recommend using the complete kit especially since you have it.

Yes it definatelly will be better at some point, but giving they both drop the same at the lower point in which I want to stay and its harder to do vs the rear, I will gamble for at least some time, till I get more free time.

Also Looking at these VTF springs when installed, the adjustable ring dont have anything to lock on the desire thread hight/low set, Like KW have on them, the small screw. Im assuming they know with the spring compress it wont spin on the thread eitherway i guess.

Also a pain the butt to adjust after done as the top will spin together with the thread and big adjuster nut. I may have to conpress the spring a little to realse some presure and adjust.
