1 Tires
2 Struts and shocks
3 Swaybars
4 Alignment
5 Strut Bars

You can argue the order of 2-4 but tires matter the most.

1) Alignment
2) Tires
3) Swaybars
4) Strut bar(s)
5) Struts/shocks
6) Springs
7) Urethane bushings

My 2¢.

Bend your rear bar to Zero Toe

people are working on Hypercoils for b14's that lower very little and are a lot stiffer

Ground Control coilovers should allow you to keep the stock ride height, and you get to choose the spring rates.
