RE: Wheels or drop
You wanna do wheels first.. always. Your preference/ ideas for the amount lowered might change with the new wheels/style of wheels. You don't wanna risk spending money on a drop, then thinking you didn't go low enough (or to low) whenever you get the new wheels.

RE: Wheels or drop
I'm in the same boat and I decided to go with performance over appearance. I guess that's why I have a blown stang that still looks stock. I'm not going to 'scrape' a suspension together. If you do it right it should handle great and look good to. I'm only a few more weeks away for the suspension and since my tires still have tread, they'll have to wait til summer. After I priced my suspension out it was just under 2k so unless you're doing just springs (not the right way to do suspension) save your money until you will do it right. The wheels are what you should 'scrape' together later. Great suspension, budget wheels, great tires.
How come all of the wheel people aren't voting up top?
