This wheel looks very good. I am also thinking about getting these, but I am waiting for my Lexus recall giftcard, and also for the new Michelin Pilot Sports due out in April.

Would be nice if they could put Lexus centercaps on these. I don't like the F-Sport center caps. I think those centercaps don't belong on anything other than an ISF.

Those are some good looking wheels.....the multi-spoke no lip gives them a larger look, they almost look like 20's.

I'm the black one in the first two pics. Had them shipped to me by Sewell - they'll sell you a staggered set. I have AWD, so no staggered for me.


I like these rims - dark but classy. I haven't been able to find a set of springs that will work with AWD without causing too many problems, so I'm just sticking with stock height (as pictured).

I need to post some updated pics in brighter light, I've also added the F-sport exhaust and intake.

KingTX1981, so from now on you have almost complete set of F-Sport equipment!
Btw, I just fixed white balance of your photos. The original were too dark
Yep, please post a new pics of F-Sport new design rims.
I'm also thinking about purchasing them soon..

And.. the AWD is too high! I'm also thinking about Tanabe NF210 springs. None vibration been noticed in cold russian winter, so I'm thinking more and more about springs..

I've seen these wheels in person. They will make you change whatever design plans you HAD with regard to shoes on your car. If anyone is in the NOVA area, Lexus of Rockville has them there(no endorsement intended). They will sell a staggered setup- front 19x8, rear 19x9. Or even. No pictures I've seen anywhere here or on the web have done them justice. Perfect gunmetal hue but not trace of blue, unlike what some pics suggest. The word 'forged' is cut into the outer lip for the picky bunch and correct...the come with the 'F' center cap. But the service guys said they would make the 'L' swap if needed at no charge. G/L

That's great that you can get the Lexus center cap for these. I'm definitely getting them. Now if only Michelin would get their act together and release the damn tires!

I am glad there are some people like this wheels. It's the F-sport wheel so "F" center cap won't be inappropriate.
