That’s like saying because the BMW X models are made in the USA they are American cars. A German company created the designs and hired an American workforce to make their cars.

If you are still unsure you can check the product materials and licenses for ACS. All the Road testing was on the Nurburgring and licensing though German legal regulations.
Honestly, only you need to be happy with your purchase. Not me or anyone else.

For me, no spring will ever be worth $1,400. It isn’t about ACS or Eibach or anyone. A disclaimer that they tested them on the Nurburgring doesn’t justify the cost to me. If I am getting into the $1,500 range, then I would just throw coils at it knowing the spring rate and damper are matched. Yes the cost is higher than $1,500, but I could justify that more.
