I have Lesjofors rear springs from partsforvolvos manufactured in Sweden and genuine OEM spec Sachs rear shock absorbers made by Sachs in Germany, the springs exceed the original spec but give a good ride with superb handling but then I have 245x45x17 ContiSport on the rear.
Beware, the Europart shocks and springs, although badged Sachs are not Sachs but are of Chinese manufacture made for Eurocarparts who own the UK Sachs trademark. The "Sachs""springs I initially bought from the did not have the same number of coils on each spring and one was marginally short than the other - the so called Eurocarpart "Sachs shocks" both had oil droplets around the piston rods...hence why they were not fitted and I went looking elsewhere for the real ones
