company name is a bit tacky, the pics make them look genuine, cant say ive ever heard of them though

as for the springs, i just have 35mm springs on mine, they do the job and providing you dont hit speed bumps at stupid mph, theyll be fine, like coilies or lowering kits

if youve got any doubts but only want/can afford only lowering springs, check out online autosport at www.tuning.co.uk

For double that you know you could get some real decent spring that you know will last you a long time. IMO I wouldn't buy those...

defiantly pay the extra if you don't plan on changing the shocks as well.

eibachs are good springs and not harsh with OE shocks.
