Wheels or Front Bumper/Sides

I have an BS 05 and after buying some coils and looking through the threads here while I wait for them to arrive, I'm ready for the next purchase Question. Would you buy wheels next or go with buying front bumper/sides?

The OEM rims are nice but I have 18's so not sure how they'll look dropped with the bumper/sides. Would it look better if I just buy the wheels first? Thinking of the VMR 710's in 19x8.5.

Thanks!

+1. Get the wheels first. The 05/06 front and sides look good, just get a front lip and your set .

Thanks for the replies. I think I'll be getting the wheels.

Do you have any more pics and what size are those?

I haven't gotten a chance to take many pics yet. They are 19x8.5 +35 offset. I definitely need some fender rolling in the rear. They sit pretty flush.

Are you sure they aren't 245/40/19? 245/45s would have a huge sidewall...........
