Next 2 modifications to do on my FR-S

I have been wondering what modifications I should do to my FR-S. The only modification that my car has at the moment is the exhaust. I just want to know in which order should I get my modifications.

I want to lower my car so I will be getting coilovers. Right now I am looking at some Tein coilovers and I have the money for them. I just wanted some opinions on which ones you think are better and more reliable. I don't care about a stiff ride I actually prefer it.

I also want to get some aftermarket wheels. At the moment I have not made a decision on which ones to get. I know I want them Gunmetal or Black. My car is Silver. I want 17's but may opt for some 18's.

What I want to ask is should I do coilovers first? Or should I do wheels first?

I plan on eventually putting a Supercharger or Turbocharger.

coilovers first so you will have more room for the wheels/tires if you decide to go something like 17x9. for some wheels, depending on the offset and tire size, 17x9 won't fit with stock suspension and will hit the spring perch.
