It doesn't need tires yet, but I personally think it should have some to take up more space in the wheel wells. The other reason I was considering tires is to lower my rpms a little on the highway since I'll be getting ready to head off to school come August. Headlights would be good because the stock ones suck, as we all know. Thank you everyone for your input!

But fishsniper, definitely do not get tires if you're trying to save money. The pretty negligible fuel mileage you will gain from a larger tire on the freeway will be wiped out by worse fuel mileage in the city AND the added cost of new tires

Good point KMAC. So it sounds like the consensus is for the headlights. I'll order those. Thanks for all the input!!

If your doing it cheap, ditch that chain, paint the center caps black to match the rest of the wheel, and black out the chrome on the bumpers. Then get tires and maybe some new wheels when needed.
