    60/50mm drop on 17s. Anyone have pics?

    Sorry for noob post but I've been searching for a while now and have found tons of photos but none on 17" wheels. Spring rates on my cosmos are a bit too harsh so I'm considering running something else. Only problem is I don't want it sitting any higher than it already is (would like to go lower even). How would 60/50 lowtecs compare to my current height?

    Pics for reference:

    I thought Cosmos are coilovers? If so, I think the springs themselves are pretty inexpensive and available in different springrates and heights. BTW, Love your wheels.

            448lbs/in front and 560lbs/in rear. Need new shocks and from what I hear billy sports wouldn't handle these rates. Would get Konis but not sure if I can afford them.
