Default L-Tuned Shocks and Springs

I have a full set (front and rear) L-Tuned Shocks and Springs. My GS430 came from the factory with the L-tuned package on it and these were included. They have low miles and ride like a dream. I just put on a set of Tein Flex's so I am getting rid of these. Please feel free to ask questions

$500 shipped SOLD

Separated:
Shocks: $320 shipped firm
Springs: $220 shipped firm

Default stupid question

I know this may sound stupid but what is the main difference between these and the stock ones on a normal gs? Will these work on GS400? I'm just curiouse if I would notice a ride/handling difference and if it will lower the car or keep it the same height. Thanks

gsimped: this will improve handing as well as lower the car slightly(1.5ish inches).
Lexus developed this shocks and spring as a performance package on their "high-end or factory tuned" GS's.

Yes they will fit the GS300 400 and 430

FIVEOHinNJ: If someone wants to buy the springs than I may consider seperating

DarKnight: 30k miles highway miles. The car was driven to California from Florida several times on this setup by the previous owner. so all easy cruising.

How much of a drop does this set-up provide?

30K miles on the set and the price is $500 OBO shipped? WOW.. I can do $175 at most shipped for the shocks. They are almost half through their life cycle... Otherwise I am going to get some new KYB's..

thats not true at all this setup has just begun its life...and a set of KYB's with stock spring is useless. you would end up spending over $500 to get both new spring and shocks....On top of that these shocks and springs are no longer in production and haven't been for a long time...so good luck finding a low mileage set...this setup is becoming exceedingly rare. I am in no hurry to sell them, so please keep your comments to yourself.
