Why on earth would Lexus not approve their own (Splendid) optional wheel for its flagship model? I’d love to know the rationale for rejecting the “good taste” (IMHO) request.

 

^^^^Maybe they were out of stock

Okay makes sense for a temporary delay but certainly the supply can be replenished one would think (Or does that mean forever out?). I’d patiently wait if I can get the wheels I definitely prefer for a $100K+ low volume flagship model.

 

That's my car! I do think those wheels work well on that colour, though I will admit that the bronze wheels also look very nice. The standard wheels don't suit NGP, IMO, and I'm not 100% sold on the black bespoke ones either, for this application.

BTW, there's a chap in California currently selling a set of the optional wheels, in one of the Facebook groups...

 

Yes. I was informed about that. But the guy doesn’t want to ship.
