I would say KSport because of the color but I don't think so...

Those are some generic cheap Taiwanese or possilby Chinese coilovers. Pass on them.

What happens when one blows? Good luck getting a replacement

That's good advice right there. Go with something where you at least know the brand name, then research whether that company has a rebuild and/or replacement program, how much they charge, etc. Those dampers are a wearing part that will see a good deal of abuse and may very well need to be replaced at some point. Even if you get the manufacturer-unknown kit for a steal, what's it worth when one damper goes bad and you need to install entirely new coilovers because you can't get a replacement for the one failed unit?

Definitely pass and take a look through the suspension classifieds here.
