Are these lowering springs or coilovers?

I'm not very familiar with suspension and I'm trying to figure out what I got on the Gsr.

Best pic I got right now:

Looks stock. So maybe lowering springs? Definitely not coilovers.

Thank you kindly.

Join date Dec 2011 and we still dont know how to use google or the search feature?

literally searched "spring coilover" on google. first link explains the difference between springs and coils

f***, c'mon people

Chill dude. I did do a bunch of searches but as I stated, I'm not familiar with them so seeing as there are several types, I wanted to confirm. You're wasting your breath typing all that when a simple 'No' would suffice.

You do have adjustable ball joints. Anyway they don't looks like stock springs, maybe eibach?

How high does the car sit?

Eibach would say eibach on them. Black is prokit, but the black is metallic, almost gunmetal.

They look stock, but I know my stock springs had a blue and yellow stripe on one of the coils.

There's a lot of dirt, I just assumed it was either covered up or on the back side. Two of my spring logos aren't visible from the front. They look a little too tightly wound to be the pro-kit though.

Thanks guys for the replies. Here's a pic I found of the height:


As for the ride it's always felt pretty stiff, and I barely notice the car jiggle at all when my 6'7" 280lb dad gets in the passenger seat. But as of late it doesn't feel as planted through turns which has led me to be suspicious about the suspension and whether I need to replace or upgrade it.

I def need to clean them off, but if I do that it should say the brand right?

I know. That post was to help OP identify them. Not to dispute you.

I was complimenting your comment. We're having a breakdown in communication Nick, it's ruining our relationship
