Am i lowered????

What it due guys, I have a question that only you proffessionals and enthusiasts may be able to answer. I recentlty purchased a 04 g-coupe, and dont get me wrong i love the car and the looks i get getting out withmy new sweet hid mod for the fogs. But my question is how can i tell if my car has/had been lowered before the dealership got it, and if so me not knowing at first is there any general maintanence or any other mechanical issues i should be aware of if i am riding on some type of lowered modification?

look through the wheels and look at the springs, see if there is a name or the color is something other than black!!!

no dont look under the car, look at where the springs are. Most the companies have their names stamped onto the spring and are usually a different color (red, yellow, blue, etc)

Yea you can pop all 4 tires...

Springs or a full suspension will lower / raise the car. Springs/Shocks.
