Fellas, would you guys rather have a nice set of wheels with stock ride height or keep the stock wheels and lower the car?

As the holidays are coming, I dont have enough money to do both. My car is somewhat stock, just want some opinions to what you guys think would look/be better.

Ive always preferred to have a lowered car on stock wheel. Maybe use some spacers as well to give it a aggressive look on stock wheels.

Drop the car first then save up for some nice wheels. A drop makes the car look totally different and way more aggressive. Nice wheels on stock suspension doesn't look right to me but I've been lowering my cars for years. I'm on stock wheels and coils for the winter and I still get compliments on how the car sits. It's your choice though

If this is just about appearance, only you can decide what pleases your eye. Some of us think dropping a car looks silly, and not "aggressive". Nicer wheels are fairly universally appreciated. If you want a suspension mod that actually makes the car handle much better, consider the Eibach antisway bar kit.

From a personal aesthetics point of view, I'd tackle suspension then wheels. Personally I think riding high on nice set of wheels just looks unfinished, but even stockies with less gap can look good and aggressive.

+1, lower it first

Good replies. I think I'll work on suspension first. Thanks

Now you made that decision, you have about 3 options:

1) modest drop with springs, and optional sway bar set, great performance.

2) slammed for that look

3) coilovers set for lots of potenetial drop and stiff springs and adjustabble shocks dialed in for that spring set.
