Default Wheel inquiry

Good afternoon everyone,

I’ve recently purchased a NX 350 F3 for my wife. Living in Canada, winter can be chaotic; I’m currently looking for winter wheels and tires well b/f the November stampede.

I’ve recently come across a set of Lexus RX500 F sport 21 inch wheels, I’m wondering if these will fit on a NX?

I intend on using the 21s for the summer, and mounting a set of Michelin X-ice(s) on the 20s for the winter, retaining the OEM TPMS and fitment.

future plans are to do a RX 350 big brake kit, and TRD goodies. I’m new to Lexus, but suffer from a systemic vehicle modification addiction.

Thank you in advance!

The OEM tire size is 235/50, which will give inaccurate speedometer and mileage count when factoring the different rim sizes.

why not use 235 - 45 - 21's? they would provide equal outside diameter and no speedometer error issues

Here's a calculator tool:

We’re on the same page, I just want to confirm that the wheels will mount and fit correctly.

This calculator tool also includes fitment on vehicle with offset etc. I used this to help select tire and rim pkg for my snows on my ‘22 350h
