Thanks! Are these a direct swap? As in, take my nx wheels off and put these rx on and I'm done??? Any idea where I can find these?

[QUOTE=toonchew;9718717]You're welcome. Yes for the rims, but not the tires. You will need to also purchase smaller overall diameter tires in the size 255/45/20 or 245/45/20 . You can go straight to Lexus but tire and rims will hit you back 3K or perhaps the person who bought them for his NX can share.

I know nothing about offsets and all that jazz. But what I do know is that I want 22 inch rims on my nx. What offset wheels would keep the OEM feel? Thanks guys.

OEM "feel" is out of the window on a 22" wheel. The rims are going to be 4" larger than stock and ride a lot more harsh. On top of that you're going to definitely want to lower if you aren't already when adding that kind of dimension.
I would go with a different offset if you want a better look. The OEM offset is going to keep that gap between the wheel and the fender.

I don't know the stock ET on the NX but you could run a 10-15mm spacer to get the wheels flush with the fenders. There is info on here about the exact size spacer. I think 20"s wheels is a good look on the NX, especially if you're staying stock ride height. 22 will go good too, lowered... but you're defiantly compromising ride quality.

You can go with +35 to +45mm on an 8 to 9" wide 20" rim for an oem look. If you want more poke, a lower offset like +25 to 35mm. If you're unsure, post the specs of the wheel you like for our feedback.
Stock offset is +35mm on the 18x7.5" rims.

Thats my "Goal" for 22"

This would be for 20" if the 22" would not be recommended by yall.

The 22s are 9" wide +40. No problem they will fit and be nearly flush with the fenders like mine which are the same specs as your 22s except mine poke a tiny 2mm more out (+38):
Same for the 20 at 8.5" wide +38mm. These will fit too and be about a quarter inch more tucked in than the 22s.
Either are good, pick the one that suits your tastes/budget. Happy shopping!
