Has anyone refinished their DHP/IS500 LE wheels in silver, gunmetal or polished? There is a good chance Lexus will offer this in 2023 in something other than winter steelie black, right?

The LE was a limited edition model, and I don't think we'll see more of them next year unless they somehow haven't already shipped all 500. The regular IS 500 has silver wheels. I believe they have been redone in black.
edit: NM, I see you're asking about those wheels in general

I haven't seen people refinish their BBS wheels on here and I can understand why. These wheels are VERY expensive, like 2400$ (Canadian) per wheel so I can see people not want to diminish their value. People that want this car with this package, usually want the BBS finish but personally, I am not a black wheel person. I love the spoke pattern on the BBS wheels, it's just the fact they are black that made me consider other options and again, this trend of black wheels is widespread so it is not easy to avoid it. If I was you and you wanted the DHP but don't want the BBS, I would instead buy the OEM wheels from the IS 350 as the gunmetal finish in Canada is quite sublime to be honest, and then sell the BBS wheels. For example, the OEM wheels list for about 495$ but I had them for cheaper so that is what I would do if you wanted the DHP and don't like black wheels.

Nice trio! USB once again takes on a new look. Appears like Grecian. I can't make up my mind!

I felt the same. Very nice to put a face to the online presence. Here’s to more meetups, on hopefully less HOT days! 😜

Default 2022 dhp

Had to get mine transferred from another dealership 1500 miles away but here it is… 2022 DHP in Caviar. I added H&R Spacers and bolts along with RSR down springs for a more aggressive fitment and the F-Sport Performance Exhaust.

Clean! Same here mine came from Alaska to WA which just arrived last month, it was hard to get a white and black interior DHP. Cant wait to lower my car. I've email TOP motorsport and RSR on coils and/or springs for AWD but still have nothing. Per RSR Japan site they have em but not sure how to order from the site. Otherwise, I'm looking at doing a full aimgain body kit. I'm more of the JDM theme that is more function/form VIP style.

Just added a 2022 to the garage for the wife. Happy to have an IS back in the stable! First order of business is to swap out the bulbs to LEDs. What a difference. Surprised Lexus didn’t go all LEDS by now.
