Default new chrome
I found these OEM wheels from an independent chrome shop on e-bay. The cost was reasonable. They do need your old wheels in exchange. Please let me know where I can get the mirrors on your GX. The lights are a little over the top but LED's are a real good safety feature during the daylight hours.

Those wheels look remarkable! plus you have the LTX/MS. i got those, too. I'm currently at 100k on them and the tread still not flattened out. Best tires
Btw, I got the mirrors from jdm.

Let hope the chrome holds up better than the factory chrome does.

Nigel always had the mirrors without the chrome trim. Must be new stuff to match the GX460.

Thanks for the info.

It looks better than the other LED strips you had. Me personally I dont like seeing 2 different color DRLs running. I'd wire them so that only the white LEDs ran as the DRLs.
