Depends on if you're all about looks or performance.

I went exhaust first.

I agree with BB - looks vs performance.

I went with exhaust first - I think the stock sport wheels look great. don't plan on replacing mine.

if 1300 go for exhaust for suuuuuurrrrrrreeeeeee, IMHO never cheap out on rims bc they are really the first thing ppl usually notice... a bad pair of rims can kill a car where a hawt pair can really help the car out!

Just paint the wheel or if you don't got painting skills get them powdercoated. Exhaust is the way to go. I don't know about you but 4k for wheels is a lot at one time and your not going to gain any performance from them. If you spend 4k in go fast mods you'll def see some nice gain.

Hey but if money isn't an issue grab them both

Definitely go exhaust first. I was already on my 2nd system before by the time I got my wheels. But that's only because I had to wait 3 month for my Volks to come, LOL.
