without pictures nobody is going to believe you bought anything.

Probably H&R, but they could be anyone.

Welcome aboard!

Eibach and some others also makes red springs. But my guess is H&R as these seem to be the most commonly used aftermarket springs on 996s. I don't even know if Eibach makes springs for the 996......didn't bother to check.

Typically H&R are blue and Eibach's are a maroon(redish) color.

Congrats on your purchase. Pics would be great. My 99 996 had red springs also. They were Eibachs. I just did PSS9s and the ride and height are awesome.
