Wouldn't the tokico's work with stock z springs purchased elsewhere for a 1" drop? Cheap shocks if so.

Those are not 350Z D-spec springs, not unless Tokico did a running change with the springs part way into production, I know I had the springs for testing and they were painted red. And they don't drop the car 2", they drop 1"/1.5" on the Z.

What has me really confused is that he's selling rims off of a 05 Z, so I know he doesn't drive a G35. The front springs in the picture appear to have a single white dot, which is of course how Nissan ID's their springs. Thing is, I don't recall any oem Z front spring having 6 active coil's in the front and 5 in the rear, which is what I count in the pics. Also the rear springs sure look like they have a pretty thick wire diameter.

Yes.

I noticed that the seller lives about 2 hours away from me, if I wasn't going out of town this weekend I'd try and pay him a visit to try and figure out just what springs those are.

What about it has you confused? He drives a Z and these are off his Z.
