Default Would these springs be ok on TI?

I saw those on CL its a good deal but i'm not sure if they'll fit ok. We have different springs than coupe and sedan right? there's the link:

So pretty much they are not the same quality?
And good to know that the front's the same. My rear is lowered so I'll be ok with that.
Thanks

They look like generic ebay coil overs. All e36 springs are interchangeable, pending the year for front springs, but all have different spring rates. I prefer MZ3 suspension on my tis. A bit stiffer, lowers an active package to sport level, slightly higher spring rate in the rear, better performance than stock.
