    I keep going back and forth and I know ultimately it's my decision, but want to get feedback from all y'all. I have a stock 09 DC and I'm able to spend maybe $500 or so on it after I get my tax returns. I'm considering the following:

    avid light bar for the front
    5100's on all 4 corners
    new rims (keeping the tires I have on)

    Eventually I plan on doing all of those, but for now I can only choose 1, at least if I want to stay married and living in the house. Which would you pick first?

    avid bar is OK and I had one for parking protection in the city, but if your not parking in the city it's just for bling....same as new wheels. Suspension is the only mod that will improve the ride IMO.
