has anyone tired Tundra wheels on their LX. I have chrome 20s on my 11 and don't love them. I don't see too many LX wheels for sale. I like the factory 20s just not chrome.

Have you considered plasti dipping them? You can easily achieve a factory like gunmetal or metallic silver appearance. The bright aluminum plasti dip looks just like the (silver) Mercury Metallic paint on my LX. You can always change the appearance with another layer if you get bored or just peel it off.

Have you checked out the tirerack.com web site?

You can see how your vehicle will look with different wheels. There are almost 300 wheels to choose from for the 2011 LX 570.

I have tundra wheels on both our LX's. 20" platinum five spokes for the wifes and 17" rock warriors for mine. Hers came with chrome wheels also and I could not stand it. Mine came with the normal Lexus 20" silver wheels but we camp/offroad with mine so the 17" wheels provided more sidewall.

Thanks for the ideas everyone. Ali, I like the 20 in platinum wheels! Our LX is white too.

Thanks, Here is a better shot. With a little coaxing the Lexus center caps also fit these tundra wheels.

I really like my F Sports. They're 22" but due to the size of the car and the tire wall height they look more like 20's.
