Im looking at buying these springs from a guy on CL fourms for my 94 LS. Its suppose to be a 2 inch drop but its more like 1-1.5 <from picture>
He is selling them at a cheap price and Im wondering if you guys know anything about these springs.

I currently have the California Custom 2" lowering springs installed on my 91 LS and I am quite pleased with them. I did achieve the 2" drop after installation, however, I'm not quite sure if my Tokico shocks had anything to do with it. If you don't want to spend a lot of money on coilovers right now I would personally recommend the Tokico/Cali Custom springs combo. If you have the OEM 15" or 16" rims you should notice a considerable drop after installation. If you ever install 18, 19, or 20" rims you should achieve a very nice tuck. Personally, I'm saving up for the JIC FLT-A2 coilovers. 8)

I only had one other name on here besides this one and I deleted it.* Now did my post help you out at all or are you more concerned with how many names I might have?

when i was looking to lower my car, i also thought about the cali customs.
but i did some more reasearch and found out that they dont really lower the car 2 inches

so i ended up getting the Tanabe springs along with Tokico shocks for my 93.
i am very pleased of the drop, the springs are supposed to lower 1.8" f and 1.5" r.
but i think that it is much more than that with the tokicos.

i was looking for the most drop possible without going to coilovers, and i think i found it:

DOnt worry about those Xmas lights, I still have mine up since 2003 :2funny: but they're rope lights so you can barely see them, except for the ones that are hanging off the hooks... :crazy2:

Ok. back on topic.
