Default 17x11's or LCA's SFC's

Im getting some wheel hop and have my tax returns to spend, i was thinking of Relocation Brackets, LCA's, SFC's, or some 17x11's, i'd do eventually but which would you guys do first, (its lowerd with a pro-kit, and im losing it punching it at 40 and its worthless of the line)

Relocation braket's. would be the first thing I would do. They will make a big difference. As for bolt-in or weld-in. The bolt-in's work just fine. I would get the 17/11's to. Just because they look killer.

Would the relocation brackets work w/the stock lca's? at least for awhile i could get the 17x11's, tires, and relocation brackets, but not aftermarket lca's for another months, (college is killing me)

Yeah they will work with your stock LCA's. That's what I am running. My car wheelhopped bad after lowering. I drove it like that for about 10k miles. After I purchased my relocation bracket's it felt like I totally different car. I picked up some used BMR's for around $50bucks in perfect shape. I know what you mean about college killing you. Same here. I's say you will be happy with your relo bracket's and 17/11's.

All of you guys in college with LS1s, and all I can afford being a college kid is my LT1! lol Well at least I had it for the last few months of senior high school year..

But yeah, definately get the relocation brackets, that will be your biggest improvement. 17x11"s are awesome, but you will probably want to get some SFCs first just because they really make the car feel a whole lot stiffer!
