Default To drop or not to drop....

Okay, so I got my rims installed yesterday, and I love how the look on the S. I can fit about two and a half fingers in between the wheel and the fender. You guys think I should drop it, or should I rock it like this. I plan on adding exhaust next, and my driveway is going to be a bitch to get up, if I drop the S too much. Let me know you guys opinion, and if I were to drop it, what is the best way to go about it. Springs, coilovers, shocks?

I'd drop it if you plan on keeping it for awhile. I think a lowered s is sexy. As far as how and what parts....it'll depend on your budget. How much do you want to spend?

Yeah, I think I want to drop it down about an inch or so. I just don't want to lose the ride quality, that is important to me. I'm going to start searching for a good spring and shock combo, that is not too expensive. Damn, there is soooooo much shit that I want to do to this ride.

So are the koni yellows pretty good at maintaining the quality of the ride? I've heard pretty good things about them from numerous sources.
