Default Questiong about ride height

When I got my brakes and rotors put on seems like my car is a lot higher. Would they have touched anything to adjust the ride height of my car. I am thinking about putting it on stock bolts. Thanks guys

They shouldn't have messed with it, but they may have raised the car to get it to clear their lift arms or ramps to get it off the ground and never lowered it back down. IMO they shouldn't have messed with the bolts without your consect.
