Haha, very large indeed, maybe even a little too big. However I do like the style of rims, so great job. Do you plan on lowering your 92 anytime soon? Also, give us some info on your tires and rims in case some others would want to do the same thing. All in all, great job!

Im planning on lowering it and maybe going with some 22s

The wheels are nice and if you drop it and throw a spacer on the rear, you should be golden. I wouldn't go with the 22s but if you are determined to, go for it.

I do like the style but are a little to big for my taste. Honestly without the drop it looks like its jacked up.

Def needs a drop to close the gap. Wheels are a little big for the car IMO, however, I do like the styling. Would not go with the 22's tho, would really send the car sky high.

Bottom line, as others have said, it is your car and if you like it,, rock it.

thanks for the input ppl, as for the 22s, i was planning on finding a way to clear more space in the wheel wells to see if i could keep it at its normal height

Chrome isnt really my style on Lexus. Great choice in rim design though, I didnt think 20s in chrome would match that ES, but u have proven me wrong .

I wouldnt do 22s, Id stick with the 20s and opt for a drop.

Nice work !
