my 95 has a 1 1/2" drop.   Do a search on yahoo on "tire size calculator".  Discount tire has one.
Here are pics of my car.   It's not bad for a 13 year old car:

For 17x7 wheels you'll want to go 205/40/R17 or 215/40R17, the first is a little smaller than stock and the second is a little larger than stock, plus they are pretty common sizes. I had the Pro-Kits too and they advertise 1.2 inch drops, but they settle to about 1.4-5.

miata.net has a nice tire calc too.
