Default Tough decision

Alright so I have been searching around and weighing my options and has come down to 2 different options and just to give you some info to help me decide I will be getting 35's sometime in late sept put on or october depending on when I can get an appointment but with the level I could fit them just a little tight. Also right now my front door speakers dont work and that would be fixed with option 2 and I am some what of a bass freak as I just love to thump and each option will cost me roughly the same being option 2 will be about 100 bucks more but I can not decide because i want each one so bad and will be about another 6 months before the other can be completed let me know what you guys think.

Option 1- get a body lift and level will be installing both of them myself

Option 2- would get a new HU and finally get my subs installed and new amp for the speakers

I am not a little kid but I love how bass sounds with music and I am dyno matting the doors and floor so no one outside of the truck will hear the bass and I get great sound quality so it will be done in style but I know how bad A it will look with 35's and a body lift

do the lift now, audio later. do the whole audio at once... not just bass, but upgrade all the speakers. adding bass to the stock speakers (even if they are the prem speakers) is just retarded. jack that beast up

You should kinda do both. Get two wheels, half the lift, and then the subs or the amp. lol
It depends upon which item you want more. If you like the audio, do your subs.

i don't get the audio thing, i mean music is great, but who really wants stuff that rattles the bolts out of everything on your rig? get the lift, it's functional and badass.

Go with the lift, it is the better choice IMO.

Well when will you really use the lift? Do you go off road a lot or are you just doing it for looks? I think I'd go with the system to be honest. I like to listen to the radio or a cd or two on my way to and from work to make the trip a little nicer and round out my day. Cab comforts are always a nice thing.
