Since you say that your stock clutch is dying, then it's a no-brainer IMO.
Upgrade the clutch.

And in future, please resize pics down to about 800x600. Thanks.

Oh, and welcome to HAN.

Well, while I've heard of people that have put nearly 200K on the stock clutch, I'd still recommend upgrading the clutch over buying new rims. If the stock wheels hold air, I'd roll on them until you found a set you really like at a good price. But more importantly, the clutch is a critical part (obviously). When your clutch dies, new rims won't fix the problem

As far as pic size goes, you'll need to use some sort of photo editor on your end, prior to uploading the picture. There's nothing we can do here at HAN.

Here's a good place to start looking for shareware programs:

The clutch is probably the best choice. I personally wouldn't think the blades would look good on a 2nd gen and if you are going turbo, save your money for the turbo and all the associated costs. The clutch can be done after the turbo, so keep saving.

First I would go with a better set of rims, you could get a better set of rims for $300 ( not cheapo rims ). If you set on doing all this stuff to your car to make it faster than you need to get a new clutch.

Clutch, then suspension, then rims.
