Lowered Zs look like crap. Your Z looks very good, even the lug nuts.

Can't get on the link to the pics.
Some variables that may make you think your car is lowered.
What year is it?Miles?I've found for whatever reason,the earlier Z's,
03-04 sit a bit lower.Plus,miles on your car may make it drop a bit....
wear on the suspension.
Wheels on the car?Tires...what size?

No way lowered.
What size tires in rear?Look tall?
Visually,the black wheels make the car look higher off the ground.
Suggest...if you want your car to LOOK lower without a suspension drop
,you could add body mods,skirts,lip...etc.
Check my Z(veh pics)looks lowered.Its not.
