Went to the dealer other day and inquired why the AWD 250 doesn't have many options when it comes to the 17in wheels?

I want the 5 spoke 17in alloys but all they offer is the spider/mesh like wheels for the 250 AWD? they told me I have to go aftermarket to get the rims I wanted and warranty will not cover it? plus have to add the tpms as well?

Why aren't there more choices for the 17in rims?

Is my best bet only tirerack.com?

Some dealership are offering aftermarket wheels now, but the price tag is too much.

But if you are looking for Lexus wheels larger than 17's, not a lot of dealers have that option for the AWD's.

You can always go with the GS430 or GS460 17's or 18's... they are not staggered, so you can use them safely on your AWD IS. And they will accept the tire pressure sensors from your stock wheels.

+1... and Tirerack is a great place to get rims, I've have some good conversations with their staff in regards to AWD and set-ups....

You have a bunch of options for a good 5 spoke replacement. I could not wait to get rid of the 250 17" OEM rim. Some like the ten spoke, but I love the 5 as well. I put on MOMO's, but the Winter sereis scratch too easy. I would tryo Sewel fo rthat awesome GS 5 spoke. I believe the package is under $700 for all (non-staggered). You have plenty of option because this is a popular size (17X8) for nice aftermarket.
