Default Pic request: aftermarket rims on eibach drop

looking for pics of s2000's dropped on eibach springs (or other similar springs) with non stock rims

my car is on eibach springs and i want to get a nice set of aftermarket rims, but im afraid the drop isnt low enough, cause lets face it rims usually look better with minimal gap, but im not looking to go any lower than the eibach drop, so if anyone has pics of aftermarket rims on eibach springs post em up please....

Not to be a dick head but if someone is using lowering springs to lower their car I highly doubt they're gonna fork out 2000 dollars for wheels if they were that type of person they most likely would buy coilover suspension with a moderate drop and then buy 2000 dollar wheels

Wheel/Tire Specs on the CE28's?

I have some eibach springs waiting to be installed once the weather gets warmer. Love the stance, not too low or high, just simple.

Hand Banana - Thanks bro, I am glad you didnt get any points. All those towns are the same, they just want money that's why when you go to court, they lower it so you dont get any points.

Rival Machine - coilovers don't mean anything. I know guys who have coilovers and just get a hard ride when driving down the street. I just wanted a small drop. I didnt want my car on the floor. Just so you know, I didnt spend 2k on those rims. I spent a lot less, that's why I have them on the car.
P.S. There not stolen.

Bloody Hatch - Front wheels: 17 x 7.5 with a 52 offset. tires are 225/45/17
Rear wheels: 17 x 9 with a 63 offset. tires are 255/40/17

My fenders are not rolled at all, but we rolled the lip of the fender just a tiny bit as with the 225 and the drop, I rub out 2 of the fender clips on both fenders on hard turns. When I say tiny, I am being for real.
