Default About to lift, upgrade steering and rotate/balance my tires......which order???

As the title says, I'm about to do a 4.5 Zone lift, ZJ steering upgrade and have my tires switched to black side out...Of course, I will need an alignment when I'm done.
My question is, should I do the lift and steering, then alignment, then tires or do everything saving the alignment for last?

I was thinking I should have the balancing/rotating done last....what's your thoughts?

i think i would save alignment for last, assuming you are doing all this at the same time. if you are timing it out over weeks or months then do the alignment after the lift and again after steering changes.

I plan on doing the lift and steering over a weekend and the tires as soon as possible after that.
