Default Rim & Tires Help

I just bought my 2009 CPO GS 350 Smoky Granite. I love it, clean and the emblems and rims are blacked out. Its pretty stock so i guess it must be a factory option.

I want to get rims and have been looking for the last 60 days. What is is the best match up for rim and tire size and what has a smooth not bumpy ride. 19'? 20? staggered?

I like the attached pictured rims but there not staggered and have a 9.5 lip would that work?

First off, welcome to Club Lexus! Congrats on your new ride. Post some pics!

I suggest you check out the wheel thread found here. You'll find a lot of feedback and opinions on different sizes. Wheel size and offset, along with tire size, all play huge factors. Do your research before pulling the trigger on any wheels.

Good luck.
