how much would a 2" drop kit cost? Will it mess up the ride smoothness?

At a glimpse, that reminds me of a 2000 Ford Taurus or something. I would go with a bigger wheel on that body style for sure. (just my opinion)

I didn't say it would ride like a Ford Taurus, I said it looked like one at a glimpse to me. I didn't say 23's, but I think 20's would fill the fenders much better. I'm glad you think the wheels look great on your car. That's what counts...Not my humble opinion. I guess just because someone owns a certain car, it makes them think that car is above everything else.
The rims are Nakayama Speedstars. BTW im 15, that cars allll mine next year. Plan to through 3 12's in it.
That is, if you were to own it. I guess if I were 15, I would think an ES on Tenzo's was the best thing in the world, too. Sorry, pal.

man, look at the tyre gap!! You will need to drop 2" my friend. 18" does look small on ES.... But then again, I wouldn't put 20" on ES.

Jeez, it's the first pic of an ES 300 on 18's I've seen, can we be happy. ALL LEXUS MODELS need a 2" drop...
