if u are tight, save the money. when u have sufficient spare funds get both. car looks odd with (fierce rims and stock bod )and (stock rims and fierce bodykit) combos. looks great with both.

i dont think a body kit would always look good with stock rims, but stock body kit always looks good with new rims

Rims for sure, for the reasons stated above plus, if you get lighter rims and better tires (which is most likely) you'll get a performance increase. Whereas body kits are 100% looks.

I would get rims first,because it not only give you better looks but it also improve your car grips which usually means improve handling.

Don't get me wrong, I love body kits as well. However, I feel rims are the main course while body kits are the icing on the cake. Rims definitely make the most difference aesthetically |

rims and lowering springs. would make the car look a little bit aggressive even without extensive body kit.
