powdercoating weakens them and they have a much greater chance of cracking ro even shattering, ive seen it several times

IMHO Chrome rims are heavy as ****... i'd rather rock hubcaps than heavy ass, performance degrading, fugly rims... the lancer is already slow as-is, why make it any slower?

are you sure they are chrome... there are a lot of polished wheels out there that people just say are chrome b/c they are bright and shiny... and if you are gonna paint them just dont get them. Unless you can resale them on say ebay for a higher price

also make sure they are the same lug pattern. the ES needs rims with a 4 x 100. Even if they are 4 lug they could be 4x114(or something like that....i know theres another slightly off 4 lug pattern).
If you do like them and want to get them to actually ride on and not just to resell, try to fit them on first before you buy.
