Annette & Brian Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Have not found much information on upsizing the '02 ES300's wheels & tires and thought we would post the latest mod to our '02. -18"x7.5" Privat (division of Konig) Black Netz -245/45/18 Michelin Primacy MXV4 Additional photos in our gallery. Next mod is a wing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kncnsm Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Did you have to install spacers to fit the 245 tires on your ES?

blk_on_blk Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Very nice ride.... gotta luv black! In upsizing wheels/tires, I always check to see what the Tire Rack offers... reading the size and offset combinations they offer for my ride always gives me a good indication of the range of wheel/tire combos that fit without modification or spacers.

steviej Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Careful, put any weight in the back seat (even one adult) and hit a bump or swoop in the road; the inner lip of the fender is going to score the outer edge of the tire. It happens on my summer rims and they are only 235/40-18s. When these need replacing, I am moving down to 225s to avoid this. Virtually no damage is done but the noise is unexpected and makes me cringe. On the other hand, the rims look very sharp. Please don't put a wing on a Lex. At most a low spoiler or lip spoiler, but no wings. steviej Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vesnyder Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Post more pics! I have the exact car ('04 330) and am considering similar wheels. Also comment on the tire sizes - would be a bummer of they rubbed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
