Default ES300 Wheel Selection

Was wondering if anyone who has pictures of a 97-01 es with GS400 or GS430 wheels oh it. With or without drop...doesn't matter. Im looking at either the 5spoked older GS400 or the newer 07-08 5 spoked ones. Thanks for your time.

wow, stunning. I have the champagne(gold) colored 00 es300. Got bout 110k miles but would like to give it a bit more style. My stock wheels are bubbling and flaking for some odd reason, they had road rash when I first bought the car(44k mi) and would like to get something along the lines of the 5 stars quite like that! How much did it run you for the suspension and also wheels? Also how does it ride? more rigid with the wheels with addition to the suspension

the wheels fit ok in front but you need spacer at the back (i can't remember how thick it is). I use H&R lower spring which not comfort but it's a different feeling than before but i like it. I just bought the tokico strut but i didn't install it yet. One more thing, if you going to change into a bigger wheel make sure you avoid pot hole because i repair my wheel a couples time already Good luck
