I'm on Sportlines so I'm close to 2" lower, those are 215/45/17s in the pic. You might have to roll your rear fenders with 18s+3"drop, but I don't know that for a fact. I'm sure someone here has some personal experience with a similar setup they can share.

From this side you can see how much a 17 feels the wheel well with a 40 series tire.
