Default Couple Of Questions about Wheel Fitment and Suspension, CD5

Just got a free CD5, all it needed was a new distributor and thats it. Now I'm looking for a couple of thing to make this thing look tight.

I wanted to buy a coilover, but I don't know which one to get. I'm looking for one that can slam my car and and be fairly priced? What do you guys run?

Also I wanted to run low offset wheels, any one running setups like, 17x9+35 all around?

Thanks for all your help.

If you're looking to slam it, and don't need dampening adjustability, Function & Form Type 1's are great!

Here's how they look on mine w/ and w/o my 17's. I could go even lower if I wanted to, but this is low enough for me.

I can go a lot lower, but it's winter time here, and New England blows in the winter for lowerd cars. I have the rears almost as high as they can go. Any lower and I'd be tucking too much tire with the 17's. Also, the fronts still have 40 more threads that I could go down. So... for those who crave slammage...it's possible with the type 1's.

Ride quality with the Function & Forms is amazing. It's smooth. However, the rear shocks could be stiffer. It also seems like I get a little bit more body roll with the F&F's than I did with Skunk2's. If you got the Type 2's you could adjust the dampening, but they cost a bit more. Weaksauce has the Type 1's for $630 shipped.
