It is a pretty well setup page, listing spring rates and type, amount of drop etc. My guess is that they are a good product. If you can find a "name brand" that has similar / exact numbers then these guys are either copying the specs or the actual manufacturer. If I was looking to drop my car I would seriously consider these.

Unfortunately most vendors will not tell you but the best question to ask is; where are the springs made?
I personally have had problems in the past with springs made in China.
I am not saying there is anything wrong with this set because I just don;t know.
However you did answer your own question.

One word Godspeed! Run fast run far do not touch with a ten foot pole. Lol Godspeed was the heavy Garbage budget crap that should up in the drift world towards the end of the heyday. Its junk, junk coilovers junk springs. You are better off with Eibach springs and I hate them too, lol
Get some Whiteline if you want decent drop with good response , get swift is function is the most important thing not much drop.

This is gonna sound weird but I was actually looking for springs that have minimal drop. Since these are also intended for regular fiestas I was hoping that the drop would be minimal.

Honestly just want a spring that has near OE ride height but a bit stiffer to match the OE dampers better.

Swifts might be good. They do drop a little but its like an 1 inch max in front and less than an inch in the rear if I recall correctly,

The swift spec r springs, right? I had looked at swift briefly but lost interest when I discovered that they didn’t produce a bare bones sport spring for the FiST and instead offer the spec-r as their entry level spring.

GOOD LUCK with that !

I have been searching for the last 3+ years for springs like that to put over some B6es, but they just do NOT exist, since most (unlike us and a very few others) want to slam these cars down past the factory ride height. [:(]

The Swift spring is about as close as your gonna get. Well worth the price.
