I'm running 17x8 32mm offset with 215/50/17 tires right now
I slammed the car with coilovers and now my rear fenders are rubbing like mad.
the rear clears the coilover by half a inch, if it's strut and springs, it'll clear by like 5mm lol.
front has no clearance problems.
i'm going to roll the fender tonight.
so yea, stick with some normal sizes plz.

How about this ones?
Also to all that run 18" wheels on the 2001 and under model ES's, does the car still feels smooth or do you feel the road even more then when you use your regular tires?
AND BE HONEST!! dont just say yeah it is lol

^^ tires are everything.
I had 18s on cheap tires, they were good. But the car was super stiff for my liking. If i could go back i would've gotten 225/45/R18 tires, instead od 225.40R18.
So, buy some good tires in the bigger size.
I sure hope you aren't waiting on a deal with tires/rims together for cheap. I suggest buying the rims for the rims, and tires separately.

MyEs300Yea, don't take this the wrong way, I'm just trying to help you out, but when you refer to multiple things (such as rims), you would need to use "these" instead of "this". "This" is singular. Also, please stay away from "bling" it makes the car look cheap.
