You could probably get a lot of examples over in the Suspension section of the forums.

I have KW V1's with 1.5-1.7 drop in the front and 1.8-2.0 in the back, i can't remember exactly, but I love the look and the handle of it.

Depends on how much you are willing to spend for the "good" drop. You can either get just springs for the "good" drop or the whole coilover.

What is a "good" drop to you?

You can't go any lower due to the rubbing over speed bumps. My friend had his at like 2.0 in the front and it rubbed so bad over the speed bumps.
