The Seller lists "OE and OEM" in the listing details. I believe springs for our cars were made by Bilstein, not this manufacturer. However this could be a less expensive alternative. Kind of a gamble but not a seriously expensive one.

Springs were different depending on Markets and options. The more the options, the stiffer the springs, to compensate for the added weight.

Part numbers are stamped on the springs. Try to locate yours and get the same.
