what would it look like?

hey everyone!, i just have a few questions... im planning on buying eibach sportline springs for my car and i was just wondering what a 2" drop will look like on 17" rims with 40 series tires? and how much clearance will i have off the ground? will my tires scratch the wheel well? and if i take my lips off will i be ok for the snow?.... thanks!

heres a pic if its helps?

You'll be good to go, I ran 17's on those springs for years and never had a problem, and drove in the snow lowered, you should be fine, but do take the front lip off.
