No, they were standard on the 430 and optional on RWD 300/350 - Standard on the 300 and 350 were 17" 10 spoke.

As far as searching, best to key off of GS430 and GS350.

you are better off looking for them at classified, craigslist or something

with the retail prices on these and tires, you could've gone much better aftermarket rims

The 5 spoke was standard on the 2007 GS430 and 2007 GS350 RWD and GS430!!!

The GS350 AWD comes with the 10 spoke!!!!

Some Lexus dealers take your stock rims and exchange for another set for a small fee, Longo Lexus and Westminster Lexus do it!!!

They might have been a very popular option (I think we both share the opinion that they are very good looking rims ), but not standard on the 07 GS350 RWD according to Lexus' specs. 17" are also standard on the 2008

2007

Ebay has sets of take off OEM wheels available. Also another good source would be a local salvage yard.

I just don't like how they curve in!!!!

I remember talking to my Sales Rep and I kept saying "It comes with the 5 spoke right."

He said it was standard but I guess he and I are wrong!!!
