I know this has been brought about before, but I can't seem to find the thread that mentioned it. Do any of you guys know what a good width would be for a 1996 ES300, I am thinking 17" rims, and I know I need a 5-lug pattern, but I'm not sure about the width and offset. Any information you guys can provide would be very helpful, thanks in advance.

 

17x7 will work fine. You can go as far as 19x8.5 if you are daring. The bolt pattern you need is 114.3x5 and offset needs to stay between -40 to -45.

Good Luck!

 

For a 17" X 7 Rims you can go with 215/50/17 or 215/45/17 depending on how low of a profile you want. But if the streets in your town are messed up in certain places you may want to stick to a higher profile on the tire like the 215/50.
If you go with a 17 x 7.5" rim . You may want to go with a 225/45/17. A good resource for what tire you can go with is tires.com or tirerack.com. They have a virtual wheel try-on program that will suggest tire sizes based on the rim diameter you choose. Just in case I am selling a set of 16 inch Detata DT 115. with V-rated Bridgestone Turanza tires for $860. they are new...in case you are interested. here is a pic

 

anyone ever seen 2000 ES chrome wheels on a 92 ES? I think those look pretty awesome, just wonderin if anyones had any experience doing that. I know the 2K's are 16 inches atleast. The guy at a shop said they should work fine. Would they? and would they look funny? haha
