I have three question about parts that I want to buy for my lexus.

1.I was wondering what kind of cold air intake you would recommend me getting.

2. Xenon headlights, are there any specific bulbs I should buy or any you would recommend.

3. What size of rims would you recommend for the car, I was considering 17" which I think would fit the car fine.

Please let me know if you have opinions or recommendations on what parts I should buy.
 
Go with injen cold air intake. I would recommend pilot xenon hid kit (pilothid.com). Go with 4300k, you get more lumens and will be brighter. The higher the kelvins, the less lights(lumens) you will get. Go with the 18 inch (235/18/40) and also I suggest lower the car with the Ibach sprotline lowering kit.
 
I would recommend a K&N Cold Air Intake, They guarantee HP increase and have dyno test numbers to go off. As for the Xenon Im surprised it doesn't have it already. Unless you are just looking to get a different color bulb in which case I wouldn't go much higher than 6000K otherwise they will be too close to purple and you will likely be pulled over more often. If you are looking at changing from halogen to Xenon it is illegal but you should be fine if again you stay under 6000K and you be sure they are leveled correctly as to not blind on coming traffic. As for wheels I would go with 18" it will give you better performance and looks and the wheel wont fill the whole wheel well. 17" would work too but I think the 18" would be best. Oh also on the Xenon if you are converting to xenon make sure you get a good kit not a cheaply constructed chinese kit. Good Luck!
