I think first off you need to get really clear on what you want the car to look like, as it sounds like that is most important to you. Then leave $ aside and work backwards from the wheels.
!) After deciding what wheels you want, select the bolt pattern that is most common (therefore least expensive), probably 4X100, then buy the wheels and tires. Narrower tires are easier to fit upfront obviously.
2) Buy at least front disks drilled for 4X100 or whatever, and then drums drilled for rear and put them on, then bolt on the tires.
How much money do you have after that? What else can you afford to do? How does the offset look?
Space out if you have to with spacers, keeping in mind if you go too far you may have to go for studs.
You want to drop it next? Back end is easy, just search for "how to lower the rear" and you'll find tons of info. Up front you then know how much room you have to work within, and you can call up Topline or whoever and get the least expensive kit to lower your car.
Money unfortunately is easy to spend, and there are many ways of getting these parts, new, used, Ebay, retail, 5 finger discount, so we don't know how much you have to spend, we can just tell you how to get to the point you want to get to if you are CLEAR on what you want to end up with.
As my dad would say "There ain't no free lunch" and "It ain't worth doing unless its done right".
