I have limited funds (who doesn't?) and I need to replace my struts on my Alero, plus I have two rims that are bent. My car has 120,000 miles. Rather than get replacement rims, I plan on just getting four aftermarket. These rims are what I plan on buying in 16". So what do you guys think I should replace first?

prolly your suspension components first then work on rims

Thanks. I think my struts are so bad that I have a shudder from time to time coming from the rear. Kind of like running over rumble strips with just the rear tires, but not as loud or as violent. Knowing my luck it's something worse!
