If you are on a budget, forget the wheels and tires and lowering the car. By the time you get the wheels/rubber/springs/shocks/struts/bs rods/cc plates/bj's/sway bar links, you just spent enough to make your 4.6 forced induction.

After 1.5" of drop in the front, I'd recommend the cc plates and new struts. As far as what would look good with 18's, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
