Default Which years ES350 had these chrome rims?

I'm looking for these seven-spoke chrome rims. Lexus made most ES350s with the satin finish, but I like chrome.

When I search parts yards, I'm only coming across 2009 model years with these rims, but does anyone know if other years had them?

They're the 17" wheels we've all seen in satin on nearly every ES 5th Gen, but I want chrome.

Thanks!

These are from 2007-2009 and the chrome wheels were an option.

They're not easy to find! They're listed on a parts yard website, but when I call, every yard says they no longer have them!

I was thinking of putting them on a Highlander. I just really like chrome rims!

I swapped out my tattered chrome wheels with new re-chromed wheels from Wesden associates at http://www.wesden.com/ . Rims do not have to be chromed for swap.

Nice find! My last source from Calif for chrome rims is out of business. They were not the cheapest but did the best job!

I purchased this car when it was 9 months old. The dealer had swapped the Ultra Wheels that came on it for std ES wheels that were PVD coated. I wanted ES Ultra wheels like what came on it originally but no one had Ultra wheels to chrome.

This looks great! I really like it and I don't think I've seen these rims in chrome before.

My wife replaced those rims with some aftermarket rims not too long ago.
She let the tire place keep the rims.
