Better Ride

Can any one tell me if I change out my stock, struts.shocks or springs from my 2000 SE for GLE set up will this improve my ride. I travel 1000 plus miles a week and would like to improve the ride. Thanks

the single best thing you could do...

is go to the 2k 16" 5 spoke wheels. the 55 series will help alot.

You should have no trouble finding very cheap GLE springs and struts. I would suspect installation will cost more than the stock used springs and struts.

i've read only the struts are different, and only in the rear. If you're serious about this i'm sure there are many GXE/GLE owners willing to do a swap with you. However, I'm inclined to think Tim's suggestion is the best and cheapest.
