you already have wheels so make the stance right, and then see if you want to go bigger. GET AIR!!!!! (imo)

IMO, I think that you'll enjoy the air more than new rims :dance:

Air, because I'd always recommend suspension before wheels.

When I buy my GS430, the first thing I'm doing is air-ride suspension. Then I'll think about what rims I want to get. I don't want to put 20s on their and have a monster truck stance.

Airbag it!:thumbsup:

bag it first...then you can see what you're working with and get the right wheels to fit it.

i would have to agree to this as well. air would be better so than you can find out how aggressive you can get on the rim and how much of a camber if any you will have

For me personally the answer is both. I wouldn't run the car on the street until both have been done. Because to me it would look weird either way, air with stock wheels, or stock height with aftermarket wheels. Not as bad but similar to guys that install aero and don't paint it, would just look incomplete. I say hold out until you got all the mods you want to look decent and then put it all on at one time. So for now I would just roll it stock and continue to save up and buy parts, but thats just my .02
