ahhh man u guys said it i definitely will get new wheels, just couldnt afford both coilovers and wheels at the same time, plus if i was to get wheels first it would look stupid riding 4x4 status. i might get custom rota p45R in sport bronze. 19x9.5 front 19x11 rear low 20s offset. or the linea corse lemans in gold 19s. there a bit over my budget so rotas it might be.

installing suspension is cake. adjusting the ride height and making it even on all corners takes most of the time.
