Nice car, don't like the wheels now that I've seen them from these angles. I agree with you, sell them and get some 17's or something.

Those wheels are huge, and she does look like a 4WD . However I do like the rim design, but as you said a set of 17's and then a drop and she'll be sweet.

look on the toyotanation forums, i think the eibachs were a very well engineered set of springs. the ride is very comfy still.

we need a photo shoot asap. black and white es's lol

im actually kinda wondering how those wheels look with a drop.

I was wondering that as well but I don't have much time because these tires are bare.. and i'm not going to throw down an easy grand on tires for these giants.For the same price i can get new wheels and tires haha.

U should change your sig pretty soon but the car is lookin great. Sell those wheels n get yourself a nice set of 17s or 18s and a drop.

I like the look of those wheels, just too big for an ES. I agree that 17's would look great. Very clean looking ES, glad you found one!

I think 19" is perfect fit! 20" look to big and 18 below are too small
