Default Lowering 98 ex coupe with 17's whos springs should i use

Hey everyone i just bought a set of 17 ADR Rs limited wheels for my car and i want to lower it too. I want Springs that will lower the car but not tuck the tire under the wheel well... I dont like the tucked look i still want the top of tire visible or just the tip tucked. the springs with be paired up with KYB AGX's... I figured id put eibach pro kit on but im afraid their will still be a lot of fender gap so i figured sportlines but i dont know i need lots of opinions please... Basically i want to drop with least amount of fender gap as possible without the tuck or minimal tuck

you can either go with the eibach sportlines i think are a 1.3" drop or maybe some h&r springs but they're the same company. that should leave about a finger and a half gap.

Pro-Kit = 1.4
Sportline = 1.8

I have a prokit on a 97 si (ex) with 17's and i have about 1 1/2 finger gap all around. I wouldnt want any lower where I live.

Just do like my friend (who has a coupe with RS Limiteds), he got some drop zone coilovers and some tokico shocks.

I know they're not the best of quality, but they get the job done.
