Default Best source for OEM take-offs?

I'm looking for the 2010 OEM 10-spoke, silver (not chrome) 18" wheels for the LS 460. My LS has the 19" wheels but I like the look of the 18s, I'd like to preserve the intended ride of the car and save a bit on tire replacement.

I've looked at Sewell and even with the discount, they're a bit expensive for take-offs. I found a set of 4 on eBay for 515 bucks plus 130 shipping but the seller has some questionable reviews.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-LEXUS-LS...#ht_500wt_1206

If I can't get my hands on these, I'd also love to have the 19" 7 spoke wheel from the 600hL hybrid, also expensive on Sewell. Do they ever have additional promos besides the generous CL discount?

Be patient with eBay, that's my best suggestion. I took quite a while to get a set of the 19s you have on your car and remember seeing plenty of sets of the wheels you're looking for. If you're not comfortable with the reviews of this one particular seller (understandable), just check periodically. They show up all the time.

Maybe! When you're ready, send some pics and we'll discuss.

Wow. They're gorgeous, but I don't know that I can hang with the chrome. Thanks for responding and for the picture. What did you replace them with?

Dang, I'm in the market for OEM wheels again as well. There's a few locally with tires for 600 but I fear shipping would kill me, even though I like yours.
