Default Confused

After all the research I just ordered ltuned shocks and springs...the one I ordered is called L-Tuned Performance Road Springs and then I found L-Tuned GS Lowering Springs. How many different type of springs do they make? I want to lower my car an inch...now I am not sure if I got the correct springs. Are they the same springs?

I've only heard of one variety. Where did you find this?

As far as I know, L-Tuned only made one set of shocks and springs for the GS.

Yeah, there should be only one....

If you post up links to the two items you saw we can confirm the right one / differences. I'm guessing its just a description difference (both are accurate) and the item number/sku is the same.

One item is the shocks, the other is the springs. Pictures are both of springs which is a bit misleading

Yes I bought both but are the springs as same as the ltuned lowering springs found in Carson Toyota? I thought ltuned only made 1 type.
