Congrats on your sweet ride! The rear wheel steering is pretty cool. I wasn't sure I wanted it until test driving several LCs and then a year long search to get the right one.

Are you keeping the OEM wheels after you get the Vossens? I love those rims; it's what I want to upgrade to.

I do plan to sell the OEM wheels. No plans to keep them.

I will be listing for sale soon with only 14 miles on them

OEM Wheels + OEM Michelin Tires + OEM TPMS sensors I will post all in about 1-2 weeks when I swap for the Vossen wheels.

Will they fit a 2021 vert without any modification? I thought I had read that they changed something with the wheels in 2024?

To my knowledge, the only thing different is 2018 - 2023 is the OEM wheels use Lug Nuts vs 2024 - 2025 use Lug Bolts

Everything else should be a 100% direct fit but I can't confirm 100% if 2024-2025 LC500 OEM wheels that use Lug Bots will work with Lug Nuts on 2018-2023 LC500's.

With Vossen Wheels they all will 100% work on all 2018-2025's since Vossen's all use the same Cone/Conical seat type Lug Nut/Bolt.

Vossen Wheels on LC500 2018-2023 would receive Lug Nuts and 2024-2025 will receive Lug Bolts.

That’s not exactly true.
While the Vossen wheels are interchangeable between their lugs and bolts, they’re built that way. The seating of their lugs and bolts are the same style that fit into their wheels. However, the Lexus LC500 2023 MY wheels are clearly different seating than the 2024+. It may or may not work, and Lexus did not recommend using their lugged wheels on bolted cars and vice versa.
I went through this when I was shopping for winter wheels.

See post 49 of this thread of the images showing the difference is seating between the lug and bolt lc500 wheels.

I’m not saying it won’t work. But you might have to spend some time to find the lug nuts to use the 2024+ wheels on your ‘23 and prior.

I've got the E6 Carbon kit coming. It very much resembles the Artisan kit. The wing is coming from Carbon Addict, got their low-type active aero wing. https://carbon-addict.myshopify.com/...47132160164086

Don’t these body kits make speed bumps, driveway inclines and road debris/rocks a greater risk to deal with? I ask purely for curiosity and not being judgmental.

Yes, requires some more careful maneuvering. At stock height it's not a huge concern, though you still need to maintain awareness.

My car is lowered 1", which is a relatively mild drop, so time will tell how annoying this gets. Roads around me aren't terrible and I can work around most speed bumps in my day to day, so the biggest concern for me are the inclined entrances/exits.

My lowered GS350 with front lip was lower than my LC is now, and I got along mostly fine. So I am hoping I will be fine!
