I want to change the OEM wheels and get some bronze aftermarket wheels to contrast the black paint better. Is there anything else I should keep in mind besides matching bolt pattern?
I come from Tacoma world where everyone swaps out their wheels but don't see too many for our second generation NX.
I’ve always had Honda’s and just matched the bolt pattern and made out ok.
the NX has a 5x114.3 bolt pattern, 35mm offset and 60.1mm centre hole and uses acorn shape lug bolts.
i bought a used set of alloy wheels from an Acura and had to buy 20mm spacers, a set of centre rings and longer acorn shape lug bolts. German cars use conical lug bolts.

The OEM wheels are 35mm offset? That's good to know, thanks.
I got the wrong offset with my Tacoma and experienced some tire rub. I want to avoid that with the Lexus.
