convert to editable poly, select the polys you want to flatten and click "Make Planar" in the roll-out.

Max5 has a new modifier called automatic flattening
or you can download chili skinner and texporter

If you want them parallel with an axis just scale them on that axis only. eg. If you want them to be level with the ground just scale them on the Z axis.

Hope that helps
