strut bars
I am thinking about buying some strut/sway bars for the front and rear for my 99 civic ex. Does anybody have any suggestions on what kind to get. I have a greddy evo exhuast, will a lower rear bar fit?

Yes, the rear stabi bar will fit fine with the Greddy Evo.
That's not a stupid question either, because when I had my Apexi Dunk on, It would NOT work with my civic si rear 13mm stabi bar. I switched to the Apexi WS to get the clearance I needed.

I run a 22 mm Progress rear anti-sway bar, and I really like it. For strut/tie bars, I use a Neuspeed front strut bar and a Cusco front tie bar. I like them, and both pieces cost me about $90-100 each, so they work and aren't wallet breakers.

For me, I didn't notice any difference with the strut/tie bars, but I noticed a drastic improvement with the anti-sway bar.

Yeah. Actually, the only time I noticed the strut and tie bar making a difference was when I was angling up into a steep driveway. My passenger front wheel actually lifted off the ground. Prior, they all stayed on the ground, so that's a sign the chassis has stiffened a pretty good amount.
