Very nice, and very clean. One of the few ES's I've seen lately in this forum that aren't what I'd call distasteful or ghetto. Now it just needs bigger brakes to compliment those wheels. Nice work.

My friend has those on his 05 GTO in 19" -- sharp wheels! You will love the look when you get lowered!

are those 40 series tires? Nice 5 spoke design, I'd like to see a full side shot of your setup, The drop shouldn't affect putting stock rims back on, many do it.
Looks Good

hey ya'll thanx for the replies...

the tire and wheels are TSW Norago 18x8 and Toyo Proxes FZ4 225/40ZR18.

i plan on getting new struts, springs, brakes and caps within a few weeks...then tints, a small spoiler and get it repainted since its sorta chipping off a little in the front...

that should be it, nice and simple.

Sounds good. Have you considered removing the dealership's information from the rear of the car? It would make it look even cleaner.
