Eibach...with or w/out rims?

Getting eibach sportlines on my 2k1 EX, i hear its 1.7 inch drop, if anyone has these, let me know how low it went. Also, on the Tire Calc on this site it says that 17's are gonna be an inch shorter in diameter than my stock 15's.....so do i got with the 17's and eibach or go i do 99/00 Si wheels with the eibach ?

uh.. just choose a different tire size. i'm thinking you chose 205-40-17... try 215-40 or 215-45-17 that should even it out. i have 18s(215-40-18 tires) with neuspeed sports(almost identicle drop to sportlines). see my ride below for pics with 18s and without.
so ya go with 17s. but why sportlines?

ScottieEX is an unknown quantity at this point
i have 17s and 215/40/17 tires and sportlines. i think the drop is fine, at first it was about 2 finger wheelgaps in each well, now its settled to about 1.5 fingergaps in each well. i recommend sportlines since the ride is pretty good for a dropped car but then i've heard goldlines are qually good with almost identical drop for lower price.

nope, the drop isnt identicle, the rear is lower on the goldlines then the sportlines. neuspeed sports and sportlines are almost identicle tho except its $50 cheaper
