Default Intake/exhaust Or Rims?

I've had my S2K for about a month now and I need some feedback from fellow S2K bros... My list of mods as of now are:

Amuse style lip
OEM CF Hood
OEM CF Trunk
Black Powdercoated Stocks

So my question is: should I save my money for rims (which will cost around $2200 w/ tires for either the Volks/Advans) or should I get the Comptech Icebox/Single Exhaust setup (Spugen Ti/Spoon N1/T1R)? I'll get pics up of my baby shortly so you can get an idea of what she looks like... Thanks in advance...

Paul

EDIT: Here are some pics:

Since it looks like you still have a stock suspension, I would go with an intake/exhaust until you could do wheels/tires AND lower it. Just my opinion.

I think the powdercoated stockers look very cool and menacing.

Then dont get wheels

Get rid of that red badge. Put on your trunk light and cover the waffled area. Clear your headlights. That should keep you busy for a while.
