18" rims, WW body kit, Raptor hood, or RK Sport rear hatch

[Arctc Wolf]

next mods will be appearance, and I'm looking at doing all of these at 1 time or another, so I'm looking for opinions as to which to do first. the rims will be 18x9.5 SSR C-1's from tire rack w/ 275 width tires on them. WW body kit will be painted white to match the car. raptor hood will come w/ heat extractors and be painted white as well. RK Sport rear hatch is unique, and I think it will look good w/ my Mecham rear wing already installed. which do u guys think I should do first and what do u think will get me the biggest appearance enhancement?

wheels first, then body kit.

I get the most compliments from my 18" wheels, so I would do those first.

I have the wheels, body kit, and graphics, but I am going to put a ws6 hood on it and mold everything this summer and take the graphics off.

repainting the car will be done at a later date since I wanna paint everything that I have put on to match perfectly.

coil-overs will be done after rims/tires and body kit are installed. this town and my car might have ground clearance issues depending on how much I lower my car, how low a body kit will sit, and how big my rim and tire combo is.

stock 235-55-16's are 26.17" tall, front and rear.
my current 255-50-16's are 26.03" tall, front and rear.
275-35-18's in front will be 25.57" tall, a 1/4" drop in ride height in front, and a 1/4" increase in fender gap.
275-40-18's in rear will be 26.66" tall, a 1/4" increase in ride height in rear, and a 1/4" reduction in fender gap.
Going w/ a coil-over kit will allow me to fine-tune my ride height to what i want, front and rear, to give it a more aggresive stance as well as keep any body kit from being ripped off.

these are just 1 combo of rim/tire that I have. there are others, but i feel that this is the best overall combo of increased handling, traction, and looks on 18x9.5 rims.
