Get the RPM sport or street springs instead, depending on what height you want.

Bump!

Has anyone successfully run the Mazdaspeed V6 Hatch springs on an MS6?

Not a good Idea, as drop would be at least 1.5" and rear rates would be Softer than the oem springs. Front rates about the same as oem.

RPM streets are designed for the speed6. best option for modest drop.
