Cant really comment on the brand as Im not familiar w/them

The spring rates are on the aggressive side & meant for the track. Hopefully the valving is correct for the rates otherwise they will likely be harsh on the street

The 12k /12K even rates, I believe. may get the EVO to rotate more in the corner vs the std 10K/12K spec
Anyway, The c/o's look nice & I see they have droop springs. Make sure you check the preload on the springs before installing

these springs come from the factory on these coilovers, so hopefully they are correct
