Need a little advice

Im planning on getting some new wheels and a drop soon. I just need a little advice from past experiences. Im looking at http://www.lwnt.com/wheels/akita-ak4.JPG for wheels. I want to get 18's and add a little drop. First of all, what recommendations for tires? and lowering springs? Any information will help thnx

18's + drop, you gotta be careful with your drop cuss your tires might rub. unless you know exactly how much to drop, get adjustable shocks so u can experiment with the height and clearance. tires, i'm fond with michelins.
