Yes. It'll look like a straight-up boat! There are pics if you search in the "Photograph Gallery".

Don't do it.

Yes. Yuck.
The problem people run into is they just chose an individual modification without thinking of the overall look/theme/style/FUNCTION they want in the car. Wheels and suspension/brake choices should be made in conjunction with each other.

Well, think about it...even the stock 17's leave a big gap in the wheel well, right?

many people's first mistake is to do a big wheel upgrade first. the might be expensive and look nice, but do you want to look like you're driving a lifted F-150?

Trust me...you don't want 18's either with no drop. MONSTER TRUCK!

I have the coils just need to install them but that's what I have at the moment...every meet I get harassed.

And it drives like shit!
