Default Lexus GX 470 wheels and tires

Lexus wheels: Black Rhino Hard Alloys (Charge)
Tires: Nitto nt420 285/45r22 114h
New Price!!!We bought this Lexus GX 470 with these wheels on it. My wife does not like them so here they are for sale. I was told at a tire shop there is 50% in the front and 80% on the rears. There is no rubbing and they sit nice and flush with the side. There are no dents or scratches, they are true and balanced. They are off the GX and waiting for a new ride. Included are the lugs, locks and correct spacers for the GX. I am asking $900 OBO, I will post some pics of them off the vehicle and of the lugs, locks and spacers. Thx for looking JR Smith

I really dont notice a difference in ride quality. My dad has the exact GX with the stock set up and they seem to drive very similar. We also did a trip to Laughlin a while back and we got just about the exact milage during the trip. We bought the GX for the wife so cause she wants the stock one, actually she wants the FJ stocks im putting those on for her. I also dont want these 22s banged up from her metting curbs and what not

Hmm, the stock tires on my wife's 2005 GX need to be replaced, so I thought about getting some bigger rims too. But, my wife seems to have an affinity for curbs too, so you got me thinking now. Tough decision!!! I'm in north San Diego county, so in case I decide to get these from you it'll be rather convenient...

Normally I am not into big wheels on SUVs, but these wheels do not give off the gangster look you see on so many Escalades, Fords, and Tahoes. Wife likes them. We are thinking about it........ And we are So Cal.

Those TPMS compatible? Sensors inside already? I travel to Orange often and can pickup. Send me your best price. I will talk it over with Mrs. Captain of the Ship.

The TPMS compatability question is a good one.. Im not sure, how can I check? I know there are no codes lit up on my dash I assume there are sensors already in these. I can have one dismounted and check inside.
