Chrome covers and caps, silver wheels
Saw this the other day and thought it was interesting as I run SC430 wheels on my ES300. I have a set of the chrome covers sitting in the garage that I got for $25 shipped, it was too good to pass up. I was planning on plasti coating the wheel and cap silver. But I still love my pie plates so that's what I run now.

Just a word of caution, our SC430 rims are quite heavy for the ES. Suggest that you do not use it for the ES. I had a friend do it and it ruined the tires. It may look good, but not really worth it.
Your call though.

I just jumped on the chrome ones because they were too good a deal to pass up at $25 shipped and I could not find any silver ones for under $300 a set, which was more than the cost of the wheels so I couldn't justify it. Now I see they are on ebay for $120 a set which is far more reasonable for 4 pieces of molded plastic. It's a unique wheel and the ability to change the look with a simple hubcap change is a really cool feature. They certainly are heavy with tires, I am hoping they will lighten up once the run flats are swapped for a normal set of tires.
