What should be next???

I can't decide what I should do next. I have ~$1000 dollars saved up and don't know what to do next. I have a couple choices.

1. All new tires, mounted a blanced ready to go - $1k. Tread is gettin really low. 16,xxx on the clock and still the stock ones. Can really improve my traction.

2. Manley rods and pistons - $1,400 Can pave the way for more and more boost. I'd have to save up longer for someone to install these.

3. Long Tubes - $1.300 from PSP, everything I need.

4. Appearence - $1k My truck looks completely stock, except for the little Johnny Lightning Performance sticker in the window. I was thinking upgrade to 01 Lights w/ a billet grill and 1/2 FRPP drop.

Decisions decisions. I need some input, what would you do

Looks like numbers 1 and 4 are the only ones you can afford. With that being the case I would go with number 1. Tires are great. I have the 555R's they don't last long but are a great tire. Just think of it this way.....when you order those new tires you can go out and destroy the others ones the day before the news ones get in. I would like to lower my Lightning and all but then I would have to worry about pulling in and out of friends driveways and speed bumps which makes it not worth it to me. That is just my opinion. But I like the tire idea. I heard Long Tubes are great too. And some are Rods and Pistons. Choices choices choices. HeHe Goodluck with whatever you do. -Mat-

I would go with number 4 and then look for some cheap 01 wheels and tires. Even if they are used.
