Those wheels look so good, that is what my plan is for my car, once I get all the repairs/maintenance completed. Now with the GS300 wheels, do you need to do any kind of adjustments, like bigger lug nuts or spacers? Do they fit with no issues? I'm guessing your tires are 235?

tire size is 225/45/17, no adjustments other than a wheel alignment, and it uses the standard lexus lug nut.

^^ good to know. ill probably get a narrow spacer for my rears to push the wheels out to be more flush with the rear fenders since a 4ES is wider

Parked under a lamp post the other day....
That was about four days after I hand washed it myself. Had to get it off as soon as possible, and today was too cold, so I went to a touchless car wash and cleaned it up pretty good. There is still some residue on the roof, but I'll get that next time.
Also, did a second drain-and-fill of the transmission. This time around was a lot less messy. Measured 2qt and 30 oz. (without opening the differential plug). Filled it up, and the stick measured just at the bottom of the cold mark. Added about 2.5oz and now it's over the full mark!
