Default G-spiders and clearbra

I don't even have my 350 yet but the G-spiders and clearbra arrived this week. I can't wait for them to get put on I also ordered a set of TPMS sensors and the net for the IS350 as well as our new RX330.

I am going to trade in the summer tires from the 350 and get pilot sport a/s for the g-spiders. The dealer also put together a deal for the 17" gs300 wheels with blizzak lm25s for the winter time. With that, I will eventually sell the 18" stock wheels on ebay or something.

The dealer is also going to find out if their guy will install the clearbra I bought online - if not, the guy who has done my other cars is going to do it for me.

In case you couldn't tell, I can't wait for the car to show up

Congratulations on what will certainly be a fine ride.

I thought the G Spiders are only good for winter.

Sorry about the New England sense of humor kicking in.

They are good for any season and yes those are on my car.

Where can I order a set of TPMS sensors? I am very interested to get a new set. BTW, the G-spider looks great. How much does it cost?

The sensors are around $ 95 each.

Call Darrel at Sewel Lexus in Dallas and you will be all set.

Agreed. $95 each from Sewell, but others have said you can get the ones from toyota for $75 each - they are the same. I am not sure though.

$900 for the wheels.
