Default Honda Accord 97 Lowering Springs

Can anyone tell me what a decent drop for my 97 Accord? I have 17" Voxx racing wheels and I have seen everything from a 1.9 rear 2.25 front and rear. I dont want scrubbing issues when I do it so I'm comming to the knowlege base of all Honda Forums...

you have 17's and no drop? Oh god, lower that car asap.

I have mine @ almost 3"... some people prefer 1.9, 2, 2.5, any more than 3 and your car will look like its on "bags."

not if you have struts that adjust the ride height (keeping spring the same no matter what the drop)
