Default Wheels or Kit?

I hate stupid threads like this but I really am torn.
I want new wheels but I am starting to not like the front end and a kit would make it better.
I could do both but I just hate spending too much on a car at one time. Remember, I do have car payments on 2 GS cars.

So which should I do?

Yeah, I have.....but I made a mistake getting these wheels. I love 5 spokes. I bought these because they were on sale. Good quality WOrk wheels for $2100 brand new!!! I couldn't pass that up. I do like them though but I want 5 spokers.
The kit would do more for the car though.
Keep the opinions coming.

Maybe I'll do the 08 conversion! I priced the parts and it isn't bad, definitely doable.
