    I just guessed...That's because GTZ springs are more sporty oriented and shorter. That's way GTZs sit lower then the rest of the Galants.

    Why don't you ask him? GTZ springs will make your galant sit 1" lower then stock springs. Install them and see. Looks can always be deceiving.

    If the top coil is not flat and pretty level when you sit it on the ground, they are cut. Post some pictures and I will know for sure.

    I got them... They are not cut.. They look stock.. The reason why its shorter is because it's a stiffer spring.. It will be 3 inches shorter, but they might only sit 1'' shorter on the car..

    I sent you a message. For anyone wondering I'm the one who sold him the springs, and they are not cut, they are stock. I actually took a tons of measurements and pics before I sold them, off the shocks/struts and on so I could post those if my word is not enough.
