Need help lowering

So this is my 2nd Fit. 2009 GE and it's finally time to get some springs. I think I want the Tein S Springs as per recommendation from a large handful of folks before I moved here from LA. I don't want to dump the car, and eventually plan on 17's. So how low should I go to keep it from being slammed. I want it to have enough look that we all know I am lowered, but I don't wanna look like my wheels are hiding in the turtle shell that is my car. A good handful of the autocross fits have the ride height I am aiming for. 1.2? What do you think? Send pictures if you think it can help my decision making process. Thanks all.

I did end up lowering. I went with tein springs until I can afford coilovers. That is going to be a long while. I'd love to stop by the shop sometime and hang though.

I have a GE9. I want to lower my Fit. Did the Tein S work? How does it ride? How does it look? Can you send a picture?
