rear spring replacement 2013 Toyota Yaris (NCP130)

So I'm lowering my Australian 2013 Toyota Yaris (NCP130) YR 5-door hatchback, looked high and low for spring locally here in Australia and finally found (assuming that the NCP90 yaris shares the same underpinnings) what I thought would fit so I ordered them.
The fronts look fine, the rears (pictured below) however are a different shape to the stock OEM springs, the coil diameters are the same top to bottom on the new springs, are they going to work given they don't have the bigger coil diameter in the middle.

Kind of worried they are going to flex sideways and pop out.

ahh cool, yeah these are progressive, just most of the others I've seen, Megan etc have a bulge in them. Was more concerned about them kind of buckling in the centre and kicking out, as looking at hte way the suspension sits the new sprints will have a bend/bow in them.
