You can't even use the tag office here just for tags you have to go to the Publix kiosk or do it on line. You have to make an apt for anything else.

It's been a few weeks but here are my Vossen HF2s.
22x9.5 wrapped in 265/35/22
22x11 wrapped in 295/30/22

The fronts were rubbing a lot when I was dropped on Tein springs, so I went back to stock in the front but left the Teins on in the rear. I plan on getting coilovers eventually or new front tires to drop it back down on Teins.

Can anyone recommend the best tire size to ensure these don't rub?

That's odd - I have:

F: 21x9.5 wrapped in 265/35/21
R: 21x11.5 wrapped in 325/30/21

no issues rubbing. Could be the fact that you're on 22's as opposed to 21's perhaps? I'm running Michelin PSS.

Does the 22x10 with 265/35 up front rub or have any issues? im stock height and looking at 22x9.5 but if i could go 22x10 without rubbing would be amazing. Thanks

youll be fine. Its more about that offset. You could have 22x10 +35 and the wheel would be pushed way into the wheel well. With the 22x10 +15, it makes the wheel almost sit perfectly flush. Yeah, you wont have any issues. Even lowered I dont at full turn

Probably ignorant question but just want to make sure.
SETUP:
Fr: 22x9.5 offset: 15, tires: 265/35/22
Rr: 22x11 offset: 20, tires: 295/30/22

would I still run recommended factory tire pressure?

I'm finding this New Wheel idea a bit of a PIA.

Is there a universal 1 stop Mecca of aftermarket wheels? I'm looking for something 2 toned, like the 10 spoke Lexus or unusual '22, '23 Inspiration wheels.

I'd really like someplace where I could upload a pic of my LC to see how my perspective choices would look.
I know there is Tire Rack but I didn't think they carried the top shelf wheels.

If someone has the Lexus prices for the 2 tone 10 spoke in 21" and the Inspiration wheels, that'd be nice too. 👍
What say y'all?

Augment Wheel Company out of Canada will make you any wheel in any offset and size, your bespoke design working with their designers, custom cut from a forged aluminum blank and finished in whatever color you please. They offer 1 piece and 3 piece bespoke wheels for a reasonable price (full custom, cheaper than HRE or Forgeline for similar sizes).

from brochure. i think the middle ones are what we're discussing and it says they're available for any model.

I just bought my '18 from the dealer as an L/Certified (it only had 6K miles) and they had a 24 on the lot with those wheels, so I asked them if they could swap or get those on my car and they said they couldn't get them separately. Curious if/when you can buy them separately, how much they go for??

Bit, I like the 10 spoke also. I THINK maybe I like the Inspiration wheels a bit better.

Rileydawgg, EXACTLY. I'm not sure I beleive your dealer. What if a '24 Inspiration fatally dings one in a pothole? Does Lexus go, Sorry, we'll be glad and sell you this non matchng wheel?
I'm not expectlng them to be inexpensive from Lexus, I'm just not buying Totally Non Available part.

Yeah, my guess is they didn't want to prolong the sale, just sign on the dotted line as quickly as possible. Which was fine. I ordered new wheels/tires anyway. Arriving this weekend!

Josh, I tried to send this as a PM, the pics wouldn't attach. 😵‍💫. These are the Lexus wheels I like. The first one the best.
How close can you come? 😉 I'll be keeping them 21".
Much thanks in advance,
