Which would you get?

I am ready for my next mod but I don't know what to get so I come here to get opinions from my fellow .org members!

1.) 18" or 19" Wheels/Tires...I already have the Stock TE Wheels.
2.) Strut/Shocks and Springs to lower.
3.) Kenwood KVT-715DVD DVD/MP3/WMA Receiver/7" Monitor
4.) ????? Your Suggestion.......

Thanks in advance!!!

I think a lot of people would agree with me in voting to drop that 4x4. Rims can wait because the a drop with the stock wheels will look nice. The drop will also improve handling, which is one of the maxima's weakpoints.

The only problem with pinstripes is that they painfully remind me of civics.

Yes, drop it first. An undropped Max on 18" or 19" would look like a mini Escalade. Very nice Max by the way, what type of tint do you have?

Somebody just posted a thread about that.. you might want to check on eBay regularly for any deals, other than that look at the parts list sticky too. And the group deals on here, that's your best bet.
