ESR wheels and rims

65 products

ESR is how a Civic or a 350Z ends up with a deep concave wheel for about what a set of tires costs. That's been the pitch since the brand started up in Brea, California, back in 2014. Most of what you'll see here is the cast CS line. Want the lighter rim? The RF and AP designs get the barrel spun after casting, and they're a bit more money.

About ESR wheels and rims

The size list is narrow on purpose. You get the diameters tuner cars actually run and not much else. That is enough for a square set on a WRX or a staggered one on a G35, and most of the finishes land on 5x114.3. It's a brand that knows exactly who's buying.

Now the honest part. Those deep concave rears are why people buy ESR and why people rub. The low offset wide ones poke on a stock fender. That's the design doing its job, not a defect. Save your car and you'll see which clear as it sits, and the rest want a roll or a drop first.

Common questions

Are ESR CS8 wheels flow formed
No, the CS8 is cast, and so is the rest of the CS family. Want flow formed? Look at the RF and AP designs, where the barrel gets rolled after casting. A CS8 is heavier and cheaper, and that's the trade you're making to get a concave wide rear at that price.
Do ESR wheels fit a 350Z or G35
Yes, and those cars are a big part of why the sizes exist. The usual move is a wide staggered 19 inch set, and both chassis have room for it with the right offsets. Got the Brembo option? That's the part people find out about too late, so pick your car up top and you'll see what clears it.
