I'm lookin at some 20"s right now, just trying to figure out the tire sizing.

Going from the 18"s in 235/60 to 20" in 255/45? any suggestions?

Also can anyone hook up pricing on so Work wheels?

so Sam, was it my RX at Carlisle P&S that made you want your own RX?
BTW, what numbers are they quoting for you? I picked up mine at Bay Ridge Lexus, maybe I could stop by to talk to the guy and see what he can do for you.

Haha! Naw- i've had the RX since like 2 gen ago's Had a RX300 when it first dropped-and have been a fan every since. Just picked up my SFP 2010 yesterday- it's great love every minute of it. Great car!

Looking to upgrade all lighting to LED- and maybe some other lighting upgrades- have you done any? Thanks appreciate your offer to assist!

Bay Ridge Lexus sucks, I wanted to buy something from their parts department, they told me I can't park at their lot, so I turned around and left.

Congrats. Looking forward to seeing some pics. What size tires did you wind up with? I presume that will not be for long anyway I'll be doing some exterior lighting mods next week. Have to get rid of the yellow fogs, DRLs and parking lights. I'm curious to see what other people do with interior lights before changing them out. Illuminated sills are on the list too.

I hear you on the RX. Twelve years and I'm still smiling. Have fun with yours.

I'm getting price quotes on some Work wheels. Wrapping with some Yokohama Parada Spec X... has anyone had any experience with those tires?

I'm also interested in upgrading the wheels. Does anyone have pics of their RX with larger/wider than stock 19" or 20" wheels? I'm interested in seeing what size rim/offset will fit without making modifications.

oem wheel specs 19x7.5 +35

I think they can stick out for another 15mm.
If you go with 8" in width, offset should be +26.
If 8.5", then +33.
