playboy13, the ES looks nice and classy with the 17s and tint. What kind of wheels are those? I'd keep the tint the way it is; you can pass it off as part of the clean reflection for the rest of the car

BTW, we missed ya at the Queens meet this past Sunday. We had 5 ES's representing there, a phenomenal moment for us and ClubLexus Here's the thread containing all the pics of the ES's at the meet.

nice.. another MESH rim on ES
what kind of rim is that..? and what size of tire are u runnig..?

playboy13

Rimz - Ace Arius 17's and I choose to run 215/50/17 - had 40 and 45 series on my other rims, and they took a hell'of a beating from the NYC pot holes, so I decided to run something with a little more meat on it. + maxima's and TL type S , run that size tire on 17's stock ... So I Figured it wouldent be so bad .... watchu think?

MCV20

not bad at all.. since 215/50-17 is the closest to stock daimeter size.. not bad to have some more protection on the rims..

I like the look of 17's in that style of wheels on the ES.. Looks good

Looks great, I wish I had known about those wheels back in May, I would have definitely considered them. I, too, am running a 215/50-17 setup on my ('96) ES. Like MCV20 mentioned, it's the closest to matching the stock 205/65-15 O.D., and it's also OEM on the TL-S. Not to mention that it's easier to find all-season tires in 50 series vs. 45 series and lower. What brand of tire are you running? I'm running Sumitomo HTR+ from the Tire Rack, I was originally going to go with the Michelin MXM4's (OEM tires on the TL-S), until I read the reviews on the Tire Rack. A month after I got them, a buddy of mine replaced his worn out OEM MXM4's on his TL-S with the Sumitomos and loves them. The third tire I was considering was a Continental, can't remember if it was the ContiSport Contact or ContiSport Extreme (it was an all-season tire, I think it's OEM on the BMW 330i).
