I have a platinum series Lexus and I am looking to buy some chromed Lexus stock wheels for it but it is hard finding places that sell the stock chromed wheels. Please give me a site that does..
Thanks

Talking chrome factory wheels

You can find them on E bay, they send you the chrome style and you send them your old factory non chrome ,you have to put down a security deposit so they make sure you send them the old ones then when they get your old ones they refund you security deposit I forgot the price of them but they were not cheap you can also search the junk yards like I have been because I want to do the same thing. hope this helps

^^ the way it works is that you "buy" the new replica wheels. Well originally painted, but since chromed. As part of the process they need more wheels to replace the ones they sold. This is where you send yours in, for the alloys to be redone. Sort of a consignment type of deal, if you will...

All you have to do is go to E bay motors and type in the search field "ES 300 chrome wheels" and they will come up along with a bunch of other wheels but scroll down and you will see them I just did it and found 2 places that do it, 0ne was 700+ bucks for all 4

Either directly from Sewell Parts, or ebay motors like he was saying. It's a really good deal and only ends up costing a couple hundred bucks for the chrome process as long as you don't need your rims and can put down a deposit.
