Hello everyone..I am thinking of upgrading to the 19x8 touring wheel and I am diggin the hyper silver color style.

I tried searching but couldn't find a pic anywhere of hyper silvers on an LS or any discussions.

Does anyone have the touring wheel in hyper silver color on their LS? I don't believe this color was offered directly from Lexus and would look pretty good.

I just upgraded my 2008 LS 460 with a set of 4 of the "19 X 8 Silver Wheel - Take Off's" for $319.00/ea (Club Lexus Price) and they look awesome. I'm not too sure the difference between the Silver and Hyper Silver. Shipping was same day and the Sewell folks were very responsive.

Hyper silver is the same color wheel as the GS460. A slightly deeper color silver with some shine to it. You could say dark gray/machined like finish. Hard to explain but when you see a GS460, you'll see those wheels have that distinct color.

Here's the best image I have of the various wheel finishes. The Liquid Graphite finish is commonly referred to as the Hyper-silver, gunmetal grey, dark metallic etc. This particular wheel is from the 2006-2007 Lexus IS250 that's offered in the standard silver, the liquid graphite, our black pearl option, then everyone's favorite, chrome.

For the LS wheel in this discussion, there's only ONE finish available and that's the hyper-silver finish. Because there's only one finish option, we just refer to it as silver.

Thanks. So I guess I mean the liquid graphite version that you see on the IS's. It seems like some of the wheel refinishing companies offer the OEM wheel with the different colors instead of just the standard silver. I really like how those IS and GS wheels look and just curious on how they would look on the LS with the 19" LS touring wheel style

...search Google Images for LS460 Touring and you should find a number of LS460's with these wheels. However, during my search the image quality didn't give the hyper-silver finish it's due justice. I'm thinking only if the same image had both the light silver and the darker silver side by side for the wheels, would one have the opportunity to truly discern the differences.

...and just in case, we've got 22 takeoff wheels in stock.

Cool, a coworker of mine just rolled out in their IS250C with the liquid graphite 5 spoke 18" wheels, that color wheel looks very nice!! Your right, can't find any LS's with a good pic of the liquid graphite color wheel. 22 take offs? Wow, I might be talking to you soon

I am bringing this thread back from the dead.

I just got this pic from an online oem wheel reseller and they list this LS 460 19x8 wheel as "Hyper Silver" and I am looking for your thoughts. Does this finish look the same as the standard 19x8 touring wheel? I have never put an 18" wheel next to the 19" touring to see the color diff, but these look a little more shiny to me for some reason..thoughts?

Do you guys have touch-up paint to the Liquid Graphite wheels?

I thought you sold the ride. I think the liquid graphite looks the best. I have the black pearl stock 18s that came with my car and they look great when clean

CJITTY

Man..your kids must have you busy once again and you aren't paying attention...check the date of the thread my dude lolol..Cmon son! Haha
