Default What else should I do at this time?

I am about to change all the Struts, Springs and Strut mounts on my 1999 ES 300. While this is being done, should I do anything else at the same time? I have seen a few ES's on this site with Strut Bars, but I cant find any online. Any idea where I can get one?

Also anyone gone with a Ram air type kit? If so did you notice an improvement? Did it mess with the Lexus Computers?

I was going to buy a new car, but after looking at whats new, I did not find anything out there I liked much better then my 99 lexus, so I am going to keep it a few more years, so kinda want to make it a new car by tweaking! lol

What should I do?

Check your sway bar links and bushing. You may also want to think about putting a nice set of tires on the car (if needed). Suspension plus tires make a huge difference.

I am looking to upgrade the wheels too. What is the best size rims and tires for better feel all around, without feeling harsh?

17 inch rims are PERFECT.
