nope all tein springs have it printed on the coil itself so it seems you might have got some knock off set

that's like ordering a krispy kreme donut, finding out you got a poisonous knock off and then asking "should I eat it still?"

of course you shouldn't!

email the ****er back and find out what the hell he was thinking, threaten to report his ***, or find out where he lives and threaten his life until you get either your money or the real deals.

I got this pic from the website where you bough your springs, you can clearly see "tein" stamp on 2 of the springs....But different sprins are different, designs change, even places where stuff gets manufactured changes.
Better, dont beat up seller yet. Contact tein directly and ask if this seller is authorized, if not then you have a problem.

ask for a refund b/c tein reps say its fake. and make them pay for shipping.
or goto better business bureau and file a complaint.

As I said,
Contact tein directly and ask if this seller is authorized
If they are ok, then, produckt possibly legit.
Also ask Teain if they can id springs by the production # (not product #, but vin type of thing)..

I got mine off ebay. The box was sealed, had Tein instructions inside, Tein stickers. On the springs themselves were numbers printed in white and small rectangular Tein stickers. I don't think mine are knockoffs.
