Default Lowering!

Ok towards the end of the week I plan on ordering a set of Steeda Super Lite sport springs. While doing this I also plan on replacing my shocks and struts as they probably have never been replaced before. First off is the 1 1/8 - 1 3/8 that they say it lowers going to be a decent looking stance. Sencond how bad will this stance affect my tires as I don't plan on getting caster camber plates right away, they might be a later purchase. And third I plan on getting a set of 275/40/17's around the beggining of next year. Will there be a problem fitting them on the stang once I lower it? And also how is this brand performace wise?
