Just need some suggestions on which to do first. I just got Koni yellows modified onto some seperate spare front shocks I got from a buddy. (01+ Civic require to cut the stock shocks in order to fit in an "insert" shock). I'm planning to install those on Weds. along with a torn tie rod boot, and front sway bar bushings at the same time. Then also firming up the back a bit on the rear konis. Anyways I went into the alignment shop I usually go to and told them I bought new wheels for just daily driving and needed an alignment for the parts I will be installing Weds.. They recommended putting the wheels on first before getting the alignment

I didn't think much of it until now. Just wondering should I get the alignment before the wheels+tires mounted and balanced? Or the other way around
