RIMS....why...cuz than u get nice wheels....

ur acceleration improves, and handling will improve a lot!

after that i'd get the intake/header/exhaust than springs...or if the wheelgap is not to ur liking, springs first than intake/header/exhaust

but DEF wheels first...unless u got an OZ than maybe the i/h/e, but THAN wheels lol

Ummm, where did you come up with this? Unless you plan on spending all of your money on just the rims, there is no way acceleration will be improved just by buying bigger wheels. In most cases your acceleration will be hindered by larger wheels because they will weigh more. It's harder for the engine to get a heavier set of wheels to rotate. Great tires will help you accelerate because they can grip a lot better than stockers.

I'd say get an intake, exhaust, and some better tires.

depends if you want show or go .

I'd do Kaminari header, magnaflow catback, SRI, and streetcustoms short shifter. Lots of bang for the bucks!

u get better grip with the new tires(or should) so u don't get wheel spin, and if u get lightweight rims it reduces the amount of mass the drivetrain has to spin also...thats why i said increased acceleration

and wider tires with a smaller sidewall improve handling.
