Default New Wheels - F Sport Installed

Finally got these installed on my 2016 GX460.

Love them. Put them on the stock tires though. Figures I should at least get my moneys worth out of something I've already paid for. New Wheels - F Sport Installed-photo966.jpg

Very nice looking! Does it change anything when you drive on them?

Rides the exact same to be honest. Looks a million times better in my opinion. Those stock wheels made the vehicle look like a mini van.

Ideally, I would have liked to have put 275-65-18 tires on the new wheels in order to fill up those wheel wells however I am still pleased with the stock tires I repurposed on the new set up.

Once these tires are worn out I will buy the larger 275-65-18's though.

I wouldn't change wheels unless it was 20's.
Changes look from family carrier to luxury sled.

Bought them from Lexus of Atlanta. They're the F Sport wheels and required moving sensors and stuff.

Thanks. What I like is that you don't have to spend money on tires.

The dealer sent mine out to Detroit Wheel and Tire for chrome. I have different center caps now, those were off my 2010, I used them until the new center caps arrived.

Chrome is definitely a matter of taste and preference. I guess it looks ok on the GX since there are so many chrome accents on the car, but I like the gunmetal look.

I wanted some chrome but not full chrome so I went with this. Yea, they are street wheels, but they do occasionally get a little muddy

Are the offsets the same as the 16 premium wheels?
