Hey guys, Im finally ready to lower my car, and I know im gonna not be cheap about it and get some nice Eibachs Springs, but I ran into a tough choice as to just how much I should lower it, I recently put some 17's on my car and it did raise my car alot,.

So Im just curious as to all you guys with 17's how much did you lower it cause ive seen some nice pictures with 2nd gens and it looks perfect, I was gonna go 1.5 but I also saw that Eibach has the sportline springs that lower your car 2.0" I just dont want to go with the 1.5 and wish I had gone that extra half inch.

Heres some pictures of my car so you guys can look at it and tell me what you think. Thanks alot!

judging by that first picture, which best shows youre wheelgap. IMO a 2" drop will look very nice. I dont know if you will have any driveability issues going that low, since I personally drive a monster truck :p
 
2" drop would fix that a bit better since you'd still have some room to spare.. but I've always heard that the Sportline's ride is terrible.
