2014 GX Ugly Wheels?
I really like the updated look of the 2014 Gx but feel Lexus missed the mark on the factory wheels. I'm thinking about adding the F sport wheels from last years model to ours when we purchase.. Curious on what others think?

The problem with OEM wheels is the manufactures copy the current style that they think must be what the customers want, even when they actually look bad! For some reason most manufactures think that wheels with that flat hub cap look, with spokes, is what customers want (or maybe I’m missing something). It is funny when one manufactures changes from (let’s say) a single spoke to a double, within a model year all the other make the change. The current styles of wheels from just about all manufactures look like ****!

they suck imho.
apparently everyone is going to these split spoke designs.
personally, the 4runner 18 inch rims from 2007-2009 look the best and will fit the gx.

I appreciate the GX is a bit heavier but ultimately they are only half an inch thinner than the GX's OEM 18inch shopping cart casters and were just fine on my 4Runner

Big trucks need simple wheels. The 2014 Premium wheels are too complicated....and whack. I would prefer the base model's rims. Oh well, I'll just keep them. First-world problems.

The Base model has the basic 6-spokes
The Premium model has the multi-split spoke design
The Luxury model uses the same multi-split spoke design as the Premium, but in a darker finish.

Yeah, the base has the same wheels as the 2010-2013 GX 460. I'm having mine chromed and think they will look a lot better in chrome.
