welcome to CL!... omg your car is so clean!!! hey! i was wondering what is those things that are on your bumper next to your fog lights... they look like lights...

and as for rims... 18 is a nice pefect fit... anything bigger is a no... and if you plan on lowering your car i would suggest 17's... in my opinon.

beautiful ES.....love it in white! Looks to be in pristine condition! Welcome to the forum!

As for the rims, I personally wouldn't go higher than 17"

Hi Guy's
Thanks for all your replies and commments,Do you know any wheel shops that will ship to the UK,? Rims are so much better value in the states, lexu 17" & 18" s in the UK in good order start from $ 900-1000!!! @ the current exchange rate, we can source good one in the US for our Es300 but shipping seem to be the prob even on ebay, your thoughts please Thanks in advance

Here are a couple of replies in the pics thread you probably haven't seen - which would be better answered in this Benny-specific, non-pics thread anyway:

on the welcome and all the questions above plus -

• What are those little white, oval objects on the front spoiler on either side of the air dam? [Looks like you've answered this one - any evening/nighttime pics of them lit up?]

When I went Wheel Shopping, Maxx941 and the other good guys on here suggested several great wheel sources, among them:

• victoria tire
• wheelsnext
• wheelmax
• wheelguyz
• D2Autosports
• 1010tires.com

I found Wheelspecs.com to be particularly helpful as I tried to piece together pictures of wheels that I liked online with their manufacturer name, model name/number and size availability.

Hope that helps. Good luck.

I have is350 18's on mine and they were a huge pain to put on. I like to stick with OEM lexus parts on mine. So my vote fro the rims is the is300 17" rims.
