I am not a fan of this new flat front, polished face trend in automotive wheels. Seems like every OEM has a version of them on one or more vehicles in their line up.

Hmm... I just noticed that the polished metal part form the Lexus "L" at the spokes. I have to see them mounted on a vehicle.

I noticed those "L's", too, and I like the design idea and everything sorta staying with that theme. However, I agree...need to see them on. I still prefer the superchrome as it stands right now.

OP, are they 18"?

Agree with the above comments. I'm not too fond of the wheels but hard to tell without seeing them on the NX. If the refreshed ES' 17" wheels are any indication, it's a pass for me.

I think these wheels are on the 2016 RX Luxury trim
Correct me if I am wrong.
