Question Wheels or mods?

I am looking at possibly getting lowenhart br5's, or do I get headers, exhaust and intake? Anyone know when comptech is coming out with the icebox for 03 TLS? Your opionions will help. I am kinda leaning towards wheels but..........

Get the I/H/E and Icebox hopefully around the first of the Year. They should have been out now but they are doing some mods to it. Wheels can wait cause the stocks don't look so bad in the first place. Look like a sleeper and tear some rubber up.

have you considered the suspension as well? Springs/sways/strut bar/coilovers/etc...

but out of the two choices, i'd say the headers and icebox

Go for the rims first. The power is already there.

Headers and icebox FIRST.

Why throw away perfectly good tires ?
Use them till they are bald. Then change the rims too.

instead of the br5's, get the bersaglio spoke II. they are the same wheel and cheaper by about $1000. go to www.value-caraudio.com. they have them there.
