Welcome! I learned about these fealer option wheels from several forum posts in the past, and I've mentioned it in a few different places online

From my most recent write up on bringatrailer:
[ https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1993-lexus-ls400-16/ ]
For those who are curious, many Lexus dealers in the 90s had aftermarket wheels made by a company called “PRIME” available for these cars. They often looked like BBS wheels, but were instead clones/similarly styled. Finding them is difficult now. These used to be found on their online catalog

The specific ones on this car appear to be PRIME #260, as seen in the old catalog:

Sometimes, PRIME wheels were also advertised with a Lexus on the cover during the 90s:

i just gotta say WHOA i had no idea there were such cool lexus dealer options!

tbh i'm not a huge fan of those on an LS, at least not one that's otherwise stock looking... those wheels are a bit too lincoln town car for me lol



considering the LS was designed to resemble an 80s benz i think they do best with monoblock style wheels, but the multispoke style wheels like you'd see on a V12 century also work well
