No spacer needed for 9''. Don't ever put a spacer on car like a lexus RX. The weight and extended wheel will ruin the bearings.

I'm also thinking of getting these wheels installed on my 2006 RX400h. I was looking at Vossen CV1, but they're quite a bit more expensive per wheel and the Lexanis look very, very close.

I will probably also purchase 20's, but 8.5 wide. My friend also recommended element wheels.

I was wondering if you had your RX lowered, or if that's stock height?

I was thinking that I will need to lower it after the new wheels are installed, but if your RX is at stock height, I might not lower my RX

I used TIS (TwentyInchesStrong) wheels on my 2010 RX 350. I am not sure what the tire size is but I am sure the rim size 20 x 8.5. The Vossen wheels look awesome! Thinking about a set for my Camaro and/or maybe my new F Sport (once it comes in). I am concerned how "lifted" the RX will look without being lowered. I do not plan to lower my F Sport.

Rims are 20''x9'' Lexani CVX-55.
Tires are Nexen Roadian HP SUV, size 265/45 20
Looks badass. Wonder what offset these are.

Why not just copy the name from the post above and click search Google for it? Or go to their web page? https://lexani.com/

Find one of the online wheel fitment sites, plug in oem data, then new data to see what will fit and clear suspension. Or call Tire Rack. Maybe 25 offset will work, depending on wheel width and diameter.
