THEY WILL NOT FIT!!! 
Don't fit them, TELL him they're wrong, and you want a refund or another kit sending out or you'll be intouch with trading standards. He will shit himself, job done.

yea i said they were wrong and gave him a pic to show him, he said they will fit. Maybe the spings compress a stupidly high amount?

Excatly, so don't fit them and waste your time mate. As said, he may not take them back if used.
I'm trying to find a 60mm front spring to show the difference.
