What size/brand are your wheels? This is sorta the design I am looking for but I am having difficulty finding anything in my area. Anyone out there know a reputable source for wheels that understands our cars? Tired of talking to local and online shops who are clueless about Lexus fitment issues.

They are indeed Dai Yoshihara wheels. The actually brand name is DY Design and the wheel name is Champion. Mine are 18x10 +15 and from what I know, other than directly from DY Designs, they are only available at Discount Tire (Dai Yoshihara's biggest sponsor)

EDIT: These also clear our huge front calipers with room to spare

Looks so simple and clean. Matches the paint job almost perfectly in these pics. I can't imagine it turning many heads but goodness gracious geewillickers, that is a HUGE step up from stock while still looking like it could have been an option from the dealer.

I'm very impressed by this setup.
