would look rather amusing in my opinion. I have the hubbies too, but if I ever end up getting new rims, I'll lower it at the same time. IMO you really can't do one without the other, as you end up with a lowered car on ugly hub caps or a 4x4.

I lowered my car w/out buying wheels. IMO springs with an conservative drop (eibach, tokico, H&R, Tein H-tech etc...) don't really look make the car look lowered (when compared to other types of cars). The max sits so high stock, it looks just right when lowered about 1.25-1.75" IMO...do the drop first, and get wheels when you can afford it. Definitely don't get the wheels first.

You left out getting new shocks, which is crucial if you want longevity in your suspension. People have reported that getting lowering springs w/o new shocks (read: aftermarket) results in shock failure down the road.
