I hope they are not putting Dunlops on all of the LX units.

I have always preferred the Michelins

Just have dealer switch tires before you take delivery

That is what I have done in the past but there are not a lot of 2016 LX 21" wheels available at my dealer or any dealer. :cool:

probably not a lot of 21 inch tires available for the LX, havent checked it out.

I would rather have the 20 inch. They are slightly wider and have more meat to it. The 21 inch may be a little bumpy. Whatever u chose, they both look good. I have oem dunlops on my gx and after 10k still are doing well. Most people say they go bad well before that.

"What ever u choose"?

It comes with 21" wheels, period.

Dunlops suck and I have always dumped them at the first opportunity and will again.

Even though you would rather have the 20" wheels, I will likely stick with the skinny and bumpy 21" wheels:p

You say you will be waiting for the "big change" in 2018 on the LX? By then they will be over $120,000 easy.

Been through this too many times to wait hours on them to get it ready. I will arrive a little after 4 and it will be sitting under the Lexus portico waiting on me:)

Yep, mine was also in the 3 car garage thingy they put new cars. Awesome feeling but no Red bow, lol!

Anyway congrats.

It is 6 am and I am sorry but still no images. Will be heading to Amelia Island today and will be eating at the Marina. Loving the new LX. The looks are striking but the electronics blow it out of the water for me. Promise pictures when thing calm. Got to get the Lexus Inform app working with my iPhone.

Anyone on the fence, you would not be disappointed.

Im used to the touch screen in GX and afraid to deviate from it. Its the only lexus now with it.

hows the ride and handling? Is it better then 2013-2015 LX?
Hows the mouse compared to a touch screen?
Are there LED lights instead of bulbs all around?
Turn signals front rear, how do they light up?

On a side note, how come there are no side moldings? prior LXs have them.
and apparently there is a 3rd wheel option. IMHO, 21s rock, others fugly.

i don't think that's lexus wheels, can't see center cap and i don't think lexus wheels will have lips

touch screen vs remote touch, they are different. touch screen for sure more convenient, but it limits the screen size and over time i get tired of finger prints on the screen. but definitely needs getting used to with remote touch
