5Zigen Fighter (17x7 50 offset and 215/50/17 tires. Azenis), 1200 with tires.
Not lowered yet, only a stiffer rear bar (20mm).
Cool part is the tires. Super quiet, big improvement over stockers in stick. Im going out now to try and get em loose.

How much better does the car handle with the stock suspension and 17" wheels? Is it a night and day difference?

Absolutely, it's not so much the 17s as getting a newer tire with a stiffer sidewall and better grip though.
If your looking to go cheap just get a set of falkens for your stock wheels

It's great. The ride is just as good as stock if not better. I can take a curve at speeds I never thought possible. Very stable and the rims weight about 16lbs so it does'nt slow the car down.
