personally i would lower the car first. if you buy wheels and tires then try to lower the car, you may have turning clearance issues or tire rub. im assuming, from your profile, you only have a couple thousand miles on your 2012... id wait to get new wheels until you wear out your set of tires.

^I agree with these guys. Especially if you plan to do any kind of autocross or anything.
