Default tires or suspension first? putting out over 400 hp

im putting out 400 hp on my stock 17 inch rims wrap with mickey thompson drag radials. all i have for suspension is rear LCA, i'm eventually going to do both but money is tight. what would be best to do first 15 inch prostar rims with mickey thompson drag radials, or work on my suspension?

if you have stock 10 bolt go suspension bc the 10 bolt can make use of the suspension work there is high risk of breaking 10 bolt on slicks or drag radials
m6 or a4 might be able to get by longer on 10 bolt if automatic

If you got the 17" mt dr's already, stick with them and do suspension.
