The rims look nice... but to roll on 4K ... I rather spend that on engine mods or a new coat of paint. Out of interest... what size tyres are u running and what brand are they?
Dont hate me ok.

Dude,
Not to burst your bubble or anything but u do know that the 235/30/19 combination will make ur speedo reading out of whack right?
Speedometer Difference: - Speedometer Difference: 3.823% too fast
Diameter Difference: - Diameter Difference: 3.69%
This will mean
Actual Speed: 60 mph 100 km/h
Speedometer1: 62.2 mph 103. km/h
I used the link below and it gives the results below.

What specs are the rear wheel? And what tires your running? Trying to see how much of a stretch you think you're going to have in the back.

Nice wheel. Think it will flow really well with the ES.
Wasn't there some recent controversy over 360 forged with their lack of customer service and excessive time to ship stuff that was spreading throughout ALOT of the forums? I would look into this, b/c ALOT of thier customers were not coming up happy. Not trying to burst your bubble or anything, but I remember reading some things about them even here on these forums. Found this in the wheels and brakes forum. Just be very careful when purchasing products which are connected to 360 forged.

Since one cannot generate an 'ideal' tire size you can NEVER have a prefect speedo reading, even out of the factory...
To illustrate my point: [my car/previous & existing setups]
![](https://i582.photobucket.com/albums/ss263/errorseller/CL/myes330sizez.jpg?t=1239810210)
His soon to be: [and contrast to another 'stock' size]
![](https://i582.photobucket.com/albums/ss263/errorseller/CL/es300sizes.jpg)
Goes to show that you cannot ever generate perfect differences, and to be honest, looking at the numbers, he is not far off, i mean i have greater differences.
Last proof: [2004 RX330, factory sizes, OH NOES A DIFFERENCE!!1!]
![](https://i582.photobucket.com/albums/ss263/errorseller/CL/rs330sizes.jpg)
To the OP, dont worry your speedo is not greatly affected by this, and of course even the 1010tires.com website states that a -+ 3% difference is not noticeable.
