I like my canucks...I opted for the Cobalt SS version of the spings and so far have had good luck with them. I'm running the 17's with the factory tire which is a 215/50/17 I believe and I've got about a finger clearance in the front...finger and a half in the rear (inch in the front...inch and half or so in the rear). I'm wanting to go lower but honestly for most, this is probably plenty low enough.

I've actually had a small amount of noise if I'm turning and hit a bump or dip at the same time. I didn't trim any of the bump stop so I'm not sure if that's where the noise is coming from...keep in mind I kept all my stock suspension setup.
