Yes you can install a set of V8 struts and coils on a V6.

And I've got a full set of 2010 SS springs I've been looking to get out of the garage.

I don't know how far you are but for the cost of shipping, you may have them. That's the same deal I got when I picked'em up. They have about 12K miles on them.

If you have a 2010 V6 it will drop the back end a good bit!

if you put V-8 Springs on a V-6, the Drop & Stance will be off

Sounds like a subjective statement T.C.

I've before and after photo's that say different to my eye. Shall I post?

Post photos.

Anyone know if the SS springs will fit the stock v6 struts without modification or additional parts?

These are not the best pre and post pics, but you get the idea. 2010's had their butts in the air from the factory, but the SS springs leveled it out pretty well. Dropped the rear end a good 1/2".

Not "lowered" by any means, but you you still have ground clearance for driveways, etc...

Last 2 pics are "post" SS springs.
