Default What should I expect to pay for an OEM wheel?

A meteor must have hit the highway in front of me because I hit a giant crater the other day and badly damaged my front passenger wheel. I'm taking my 2014 IS350 F-sport to the dealer tomorrow to get it replaced, but now I'm thinking I can probably find a better deal online. Does anyone know what I should expect to pay and where I should order a wheel from?

The wheels are crazy expensive like over 500 bucks.

With CL membership you get a good discount. I would order the wheels from Sewell if I needed them to be replaced. You need to pay shipping but NO sales tax (which pretty much makes your shipping expense free).

the price of $690 seems reasonable. I had to get one of my rear wheels on my camaro replaced and it was $800 (jackass with a jackhammer doing road work threw a piece of concrete at my car and it hit the wheel). I went thru insurance since I have a $0 deductible.

OP, have you thought to go through your insurance? that should fall under your comprehensive.

There isn't a wheel for a '14 IS350 listed on Sewell for over $466 with Club Lexus discount.

This is a sign to just buy aftermarket wheels instead!

F Sport LFA inspired wheels cost at Sewell:

$465.67 for the front ones
$468.09 for the rear ones

These are the prices for CL members.

Not to thread jack, but I just took the OEM Bridgestone Turanza ER33 summer tires off of my car to put on a set of winter tires and have them available for sale if you need to replace the tire with a matching one. They have about 10,000K miles of the m so about 70% of the remaining tread life. Note that these came off of my RWD IS so if you have the AWD F-sport you have all season tires instead of these summer tires.

PM me if interested.

I got the wheel coverage from the dealership when I purchased the vehicle and it's already paid for itself with curb rash. I bought a set of 2014 F Sport rims with about 6K miles on the tires for $1000 shipped to my front door.

Well the dealership wants $1100 for wheel + tire + alignment. They said the company they use to put nitro in the tires will cover the cost of the tire under warranty so the price dropped to about $900. My current plan is to buy the wheel from sewell for ~$500 shipped and bring it to the dealership and have them put the tire on and do the alignment. They said the alignment is about $110, does that seem not outrageous?

I curbed my driver side rim about 1/5 way around. No face damage or bends. I bought a brand new one from the dealer for 500 just because of my OCD. You can purchase my old one from me and get it repaired or something. ill let it go for 200.

let me know.

I had winter tires mounted on a new set of the 18x8 OEM wheels from the non F-sport series (part no. 4261A-53390). Dealer invoice shows list price as $942.81 each but they told me they get wholesale pricing so it's only $333 each. I confirmed the wholesale cost would also have been available for retail purchase if I chose to get the tires elsewhere.

Note these prices are in Canadian dollars from Nov 2014.
