Ok so a while back i was gonna purchase some Eibach springs but money ran out when i bought my sound system and now i only have about $130 to spare and no more money is coming in for a long time. Anyways i was looking on the internet and i found some springs that are called Maxspeed?? I also found some OBX Coilovers?? Any of those good??? Also would a 1.4 inch drop look good for my car with 17s???

post links so we can see.
I think 1.4" drop will be fine since stock is about 2.5" to 3" between the tire and fender. So your just about cutting that in half.
