i guess it would depend on what your final plan is. as in what sizes rims and how low you want to be. but if your going with a larger rim i would do that first but if your doing a smaller rim in the long run i would do the drop first so you can see what size tire looks the best in the wheel well. but since you got the extreme rims already i guess what i just rambled does matter:thumbup:

I'd say wheels first............................cause if you don't get around to lowering it, it'll still look good.

If you lower it first, then don't get the wheels, it'll be like ridin' in the 'dorkmobile'........JMO.

i'd get wheels first just because they are more expensive than a drop. Easier to save money for a drop cause you can buy parts at different times.
amen!!!

i found myself in this predicament. i am lifted but am lowering it. so i bought all the lowering parts, but the parts arent all in yet. then i found 20s and tires for $300 on CL.....i'm rockin a 2.5" lift kit on 265/45/20s right now. :lol: its motivation for me to drop this damn thing. cant be driving around like that for too long...i'd fit in too well with many of the locals
