ES300h with ES350 18" rims
Just curious, anyone driving an ES300h, that has put on the stock 18" ES350 wheels?
How's the noise, ride & handling? Also any effects on the fuel efficiency? I love the looks of the ES350 18" wheels, I find the stock 17"s a bit hideous..... Anyone wanna sell them? :) |
I was thinking the same thing after I get another 20k miles on this set... ebay/craigslist

Might take a few years, they are hard as concrete. Will take a while to wear out :) |

ES 300h with 18" ES 350 wheels
I have had the 18" ES 350 wheels on my ES 300h since I purchased the vehicle.
I cannot compare the ride quality as the only time I drove an ES 300h with the factory 17" wheels was during the test drive before I special ordered my car. It was about 2 months later that I started driving my car with the 18" wheels. I am getting about 39 mpg with the tires inflated to 40 psi. Love the vehicle with the 18" wheels. I had a 2010 Prius before this so the ride to me is fantastic. |
Why in the world would anyone inflate their tires to 40lbs.
|
I put 40 psi in my tires for less rolling resistance, hence better mpg.

40psi is pretty high. what tire is on the 18" rims?
if it ever rains, I'd drop that to around 33 |
