props man... not a lot of ES are modded and doing this makes you the spotlight on the streets, just don't overdo it or else it will ruin the luxury of this car...suggest tinting the rear lights too if its legal! i posted another thread earlier ago.. but r u thinking of doing any minor mods to the engine (intakes, airfilter, bars etc)?

Your ES does look different and stands out in the crowd!

With the rear spoiler, the car is outstanding. Any pix with the spoiler and the wheels in one shot?

no engine mods, purely aesthetics... the only thing i'd upgrade would be brakes... ... i thought of doing the rear lights, but it is illegal in California to do such things (and its not really my sort of thing.. tinting tailights that is.)

nice ride man, almost twins, mine only lowered on eibach prokit (~1.5" drop) and 19" BBS RS-GTs, tint, lip trunk spoiler

looks good! ES350 dropped on rims, gotta love the unique ride

Looks nice but staggered on FWD is a HUGE no-no in my book.

i thought so also, but i figured if i was going to buy these wheels new, i might as well get the proper sizes to get the flush look i want instead of running spacers. im not tracking the car, just improving on aesthetics, so staggered fitment was justified imo.

"do it once, do it right. make sure to do your homework before you buy."

i went by that philosophy when purchasing these wheels. and i must say, no regrets so far.

The car looks really sweet lowered and and with those 20" wheels. I am sure you have ruined the ride quality which is what so many of us buy the car for. However, you have a unique look and hopefully, will enjoy the car for many years.

While I'm not into mods like this for the ES, yours looks very good actually. Like the tinted windows too!!
