Wow! that looks awful. I've seen some gen 3 ISX50 AWD's and they look lower. Wonder what Lexus was thinking. Stock Audi's Quattro's, Benz C300's, and G37x appear to be lower than our cars.

I 100% agree with you. They practically force you to lower it.

Bumping this old thread to see if any newer members are running 18s on their stock height AWDs. I'm looking to do 18s but have no desire to lower my car. I'm thinking it might look ok if I don't go with thin spokes or too many spokes, but not sure.

I like those wheels. Mind sharing the brand etc? The gap doesn’t bother me as much as the look of the stock silver 17’s on my 250awd.
