finally got a pic of my 2001 es300 up
Hello everyone, I got this car a couple months ago. Right now this is the only picture i have of the car but i will soon have more. If anyone has any ideas of what wheels would look good on this white car, please let me know....im not interested in chrome......looking for either 17's or 18's......let me know what you think of my car....

Nice looking ride! I had a white 2001 on my short list, but ended up going with the Cashmere Beige instead. 
Put some nice tint on her & it will really look sharp!

Ideas for 17s and 18s: IS wheels (5-spoke and 11-spoke SportDesign), SC430 wheels (without the pie plates), '06 GS430 wheels. There's also the aftermarket route, but too many to choose from. You're on your own
Car looks sharp. Where in CT are you from? I used to live in Danbury for 4 years.

Maybe the owner will see this thread, or I'm sure Lexusk8 or GATO knows who it is

Hey that's my car!
I'm humbled/greatful that you decided to use it as an example!
I would recommend the SC wheels as well because they complement the body so much. In the daytime shot, my car wasn't lowered. I had my original Coach Ed. wheels in the trunk and back seat hehe. I'm waiting on my coilovers before I lower it.
For a while I was going back and fourth about whether I should keep this car or go with GS400 but for now I'm upgrading the suspension and other handling mods before make my final decision (unless I get the deal I cannot refuse hehe). If you do upgrade to 18's like the SC430 you'll notice your handling improve just with the wheel upgrade alone. The car is so much flatter in turns. I'm imagining what it'll be like with Coilovers, plus new Sways and the strut tower brace! I've heard nothing but good things about doing those upgrades as well

Not yet still running stocks. When I update to coilovers it'll be lowered. One more thing, if you do go with the SC wheels, make sure you grab 5/16" spacers for the rear wheels or you'll have a bad case of rubbing
