The "bang for the buck" sequence is roughly
0. Get all bushings up to par
1. Sway bars
2. 15"+ wheels and good tires
3. Sport Springs & performance shocks
4. Strut to firewall braces
5. Tower to tower brace
6. Lower brace.

4, 5 and 6 are sort of interchangable, but without 0, 1, 2, and 3 you won't notice much difference with the braces. I have gone from bone stock to a fully braced sport setup on several 240s and 245s, do the basics first and you won't be sorry.
