Dropped on stock 17s?

I'm getting ready to purchase BC BR-type coils, and I'm just wondering what my car will look like dropped on the stock 17s? Looked around for some pictures but I couldn't find any. I would obviously prefer to buy myself some nice aftermarket wheels, but I can't really do that without a drop - unless I want to be driving a 4x4.

Id advise you buy the wheels first. Then you can gauge your drop on the coils. Otherwise u will be readjusting again when you get your wheels. Coils on 17s are way too dunked imho. Get both then put them on at the same time. Problem solved

At the moment I can only afford one or the other. Re-adjusting isn't really an issue for me. My options right about now are buy the coils, and do a minor drop probably, or buy stock 19s. I refuse to get aftermarket without a drop first, and I don't really want to buy them and let them sit in my garage until I get coils.

Don't have them yet, should be the first thing in the marketplace under 18 inch rims though.

That's the plan! Made myself a list of things to do, and am slowly checking them off.

I'm dropped (Tein s techs) on 17" Miguel's Mille 1000 action. It looks ok, unless your into that hellaflush trend. I'm saving for a set of tanabe coil overs though.....
