I am hearing a weird rattle or vibration of some sort coming from the passenger front tire. i only hear it when i drive over bumps or something like that. Speed and turning have nothing to do with it. it is very annoying and can hear it when the music is down. kinda embarassing because of the known smooth quiet ride of lexus it is noticeable. i went to Harris Tire they said it was the A arm bearings, Carmax said it was the sway bar. Another mechanic said it was the shocks, (without lookin at it) i am asking if anybody else had a similar experience or know what it could be.

well its hard to tell without looking at it, but I agree with the sway bar, but only its the sway bar links , when the bushings become worn the large metal washers will jiggle and clang together, not a big bill.
