What springs are these?

What springs are these?-dhrwkgq.jpg

I got a 2003 G35 recently and was wondering if these are stock? Sorry if this is a dumb question im still pretty new to this stuff.
If they are not stock is there any way to tell what brand they are?

Hmm thats what I figured as well. I am really curious on what they are because im interested in buying BC racing coilovers but if these turn out to be decent I might just get a hotchkis sway bar for now

Definitely some sort of coilovers. You can tell by the adjustment collars at the top of the spring. Can you take a picture of the shock back there?

Those are just springs, you have height adjustability in the rear see those collars. I got a idea. Maybe take pics of the struts. You might have bilsteins no point replacing quality with taiwan coilovers

Given the amount of rust on the adjustable mounts I doubt they are anything of quality. Proceed with replacing.

Do you agree with BC racing coilovers as a replacement? I read some good reviews about them on these forums.. not 100% sure on what to get though.. someone also told me to get skunk2 springs
