Those wheels are absolutely awesome but I can't get them in RI - we have really harsh winters and I'm afraid that the road salt and sanding would ruin them. But....how much did they cost and where did you get them?
Also, what do you use on the tires. I use a Stoner product called "more shine less time for tires" and it does a great job - i'm wondering if that's what you use too?

i love them
i ordered them when i got my 330 in march. since the car had just been released, i had to do a swap. the dealer put custom wheels on the dealer demo and sent the factory 18's out to be chromed. when they came back one month later, i swapped my factory 18's with the chrome. here are some before-after pics. the after pics were taken the day after i got the new wheels so they look extremely new and shiny.
i have silver GS430 w/ factory chrome which i why i really wanted it for the RX. i like them a lot and love the way they look when the car gets washed. very classy and snazzy, but not at all gaudy.

Ever since I got my Flint Mica 330 last April I have admired the chrome wheels. My husband kept telling me that I really didn't need them, but he finally bought them for me a few weeks ago as a belated Christmas present from the dealer I bought the car from. Everywhere I go I get compliments on how great they look on the car. It makes me feel like the car is brand new all over again. In fact, my husband enjoys all the comments and likes to go in detail about how they are made etc. Even though they are not cheap to buy, I would recommend getting them.

Anyone have the RX330 17's chromed? I have a 2000 RX300 with 17" tires and I'm looking for an OEM wheel to put on, and don't want to deal with spacers. The RX330 17s will fit, but I can't seem to find a pic of them, chromed, anywhere. ANyone help with this?

Here are some pics of the 16" chrome rims that come on the RX300:

I believe the RX330 comes with 18" rims like these:

I am not sure about any 17" rims for the RX330.

I ordered my chrome wheels the day I bought the car. I got mine from Wheel Concepts out of California. I have never had any problems with mine and they come with a 3 year warranty (I think it was, check their web site) against pitting or peeling.
I just called them again to see about chroming the RX400H wheels as well.

Thanks.
