I am going to try a 9/6 kg setup on my standard Ohlin DFV. Are these the right parts?

Front Springs

Rear Springs

That is correct.

Super old thread I know, but I'm working thru a similar project. Will 6inch straight springs require helper springs to get a little lower than the 200mm length beehive springs that comes with the Ohlins? Thanks!

It is the nature of Ohlins and the three piece design that you don't need a helper. Thus, my Fiat 124 has 9kg front and 6kg rear currently. No helper spring, just 6 inch rear.
