Would DR DTT 13-65 heavy strings on a floyd rose tuned to a or b be ok, or would I need to add more springs for this?

You will DEFINITELY need at least 4, probably 5 springs to handle those strings. The Floyd should be able to use those strings otherwise. But you will definitely want at least 4 springs, but probably 5, depending on your personal preference for string tension and how much "float" your trem has.

3 Springs, probably not. If they do it will be SUPER loose and you'll have to screw the strings about as far in as they'll go.
If you have a music store in your area my guess is they'll have trem springs lying around somewhere.
You really need the added tension of at least one more spring.

on one of my 7-strings, I use 4 springs with a set of 10-56, plus an added 70, and it's in A Standard. You should easily be able to make do with 4, 5 if you like a really stiff trem. I've never seen a setup that REQUIRED 5 springs to function.ENGL E530. ProRackG. Mesa 50/50.
