Picture Request - Lowered with Eibach (or similar) springs with 215/45/17

I am looking for a picture of a MINI Cooper S lowered on either Eibach Pro springs, or something similar. With 215 45 17 tyre setup.

Just to give me an indication of the stance it will have and arch gap.

Thanks in advance

This is when I was on Eibachs. I'm on 18's here tho, they are actually about 4-5 millimeters shorter than a 45 series tire
