Looking to put on my new set of 19X10's this spring with some new PS4S tires.

I'm also doing suspension mods as well, which include a slew of Steeda parts, lowering springs, K-Brace, Stop the hop kit etc.

Should I get the suspension mods done (Sway Bar, Springs, Rear Subframe Bracket) then wheels/tires and align?

Or get the tires/wheels on, do an alignment, than put the suspension parts on and align again?

You don't need to get an alignment done just for different wheels and tires.

I ran a staggered set of wheels for months with the stock suspension. Later I replaced nearly all of the suspension at once then had it aligned.

Tires do not affect alignment. Do all suspension mods, clock bushings then realign. Wheels can be done any time afterward

Yeah wheels and tires don’t affect alignment. Swap them anytime.l, it doesn’t matter.
