Default Upgraded My Wheels To 2010 RX350's

Hello, I've been a member of these forums for years and years, can't remember my old account though. This is actually my mom's car, 2001 Silversport with 180k. I found a killer deal on some RX350 wheels and jumped on them and then got a decent deal on some used Toyo's that will last a couple years. We had to shave the front caliper a tiny bit, otherwise everything is great. Tires are 235/55/18.

Sorry for the large images...

Amazing how many years a set of wheels can shave of the age of the year.

Those are beautiful on that car -- even the color is perfect!

I agree. I can't believe this thing is 16 years old now.

The next best is 17" 330 wheels but 350 18"'s look way better.
Congrats on your new look and it does shave years off as mentioned.
