Default New S2k owner

Sup guys! I'm new here on s2ki from Pacific Northwest. I just bought a 17" Enkei RPF1 17x8f +45 offset (225/45) and 17x9 +45 (245/40) on a ap1, I'm currently running stock suspension the wheel gap is about 2 1/2 fingers in the front and 3 in the rear. ,I would like to drop it 1" or so (Tein S or Swift Sport)any advice to which springs is best for stock shocks? Also, NO fender work is prefer.

I live in Seattle, a lot of bumps and hills I don't want to be slammed or hellaflush. Thanks guys.

Eibachs are also about a 1" drop. I've got them and like them a lot. Rides identical to stock. Don't think you'll need fender work with these.
