KYB should be direct OE replacement and I was comparing some different options. I noticed that the EUDM 2.5i and 2.0R have the same weight (approx 1360 - 1390 kg). The rear springs have the same part number from KYB, but the fronts are different. This is what I found:

2.0R 288mm lenght / 168mm OS diameter / wire thickness 13,25mm

2.5i 277mm in lenght / 171mm OS diameter / wire thickness 13,75

Due to a thicker spring, the 2.5i-spring should be stiffer/harder, but why is it shorter? Heck, why is not just the same as the 2.0R spring. I'm considering trying the shorter spring, hoping it would drop the car a tiny bit and make the ride more firm... But I know the stiffer spring can cause the car sitting higher than before.
