dont waste your time buying a cai or "powerfilter" the 1 hp you might gain will be mitigated by the 50-80 euros you'll be spending on it. Plus any reasonable gains in power will also have a effect on fuel consumption. The more power you make the more fuel the car will drink albeit in very small quantities but its something to think about since I'm ASSuming its your first car.

As for the wheels im running yoko s.drives which so far have lasted me 15k miles or 25k km and its at about 50% treadwear give or take. I dont know the prices of tires in the eu but you also need to consider how much you drive as the better the tires grip the less forgiving it will be winter/wet conditions and its lifespan is generally shorter.
