It doesn't matter either way.

When you lower it, you will need an alignment.

When you get new wheels, you don't particularly need a wheel alignment.

You can adjust coil overs to be what ever you want.

I would definately tyres and rims first. Then when you get your coilovers fitted you can adjust them to the exact height you want. Also i think there is a place called performance suspension that do coilovers for a gen 2. They use the XYZ racing coilovers. Check em out i think they are about $1595
