ES=Executive Sedan or upscale family car. it is not a race car

so these rims dont belong there. my .02 cents.

I think it looked pretty good surprisingly. Like what many have already pointed out a quality light weight wheel does wonders for handling on any car. Less unsprung weight makes so much difference.
