Did you not ask whoever you bought them off?
They could even be standards or chopped pink coated! (not hard to do)

sti do some pink springs (hot pink almost). Depending if they are old or not, could even be something like faded jamex.

Have they been properly powder coated or just spray painted?

TRD produced some pink springs but only for adjustable platform circuit suspension as far as I can remember. These wouldn't fit your std platforms.

On standard wheels, an ae111s clearance is around 145mm.

So if you have got standard wheels and they are superlow springs, then yeah you would be close to the 100mm threshold
