Steps

What would yall do first:
1) lower the car then rims
or
2) rims then lower the car

Keeping in mind i am not sure about the time in between getting them both done.

lower car first. That will improve your car while rims are only bling bling.

Absolutely positively....

Lower then Rims. Nothing worse than a set of 18s or 19s on our car and it still at the OEM 4x4 height.

Or do what I did...get the rims the same day as you lower the car. I had my car lowered in the morning then drove to the rim shop to have them put on.

lower first, then rim. That way you won't have to find out your 19s bling bling rub the fender when you put a set of H&R sports on the car
