$600 for wheels and tires is a steep challenge, but at least you realize the truth of the matter.

i recommend saving up until you have enough flexibility to buy wheels you really like and the right tire sizes.

I had 19 x 9 and 19 x 10 wheels on my IS. I just returned my car to stock though. Here are some pics...

I think the spec is good for "No-Fender-Mod-Required" but it is skew to conservative side.

For the style, it is up to the owner. But that is not my type.

well, the flower petal shape is kinda nice, but doesn't look too good as a wheel :/

1) Will these work on a 2003 ES300?
The website does not list the ES as an option.

2) Aren't 18's better than 19's since tires are more expensive for 19's than they are for 18's?

Thank you.
