They have Yokohama Avid Envigor 235/55/18s mounted. Tomorrow it gets a seats out detail, new headlights, these wheels and painted calipers (yellow).

I made the decision to keep this car for several more years so I thought a mid life major fluff with some new stuff was in order for this great car.

Pictures to follow!

 

That's lots of bling!

Enjoy!

Wow.. Yokohama Avid Envigor 235/55/18s, they look nice, blows away my Komho Solus 225x70x16 any day. Looking forward to see the picture of them on the car.

 

I had Kumho Solus on my last car, (Lincoln TownCar) and those are great tires but I got the Yokes as replacement tires on this RX about a year ago and they are the best rain tires I've ever been on.

We don't have much snow but rain performance is important around here.

 

Just my 2c:

I always end up comparing a worn tire to a new tire and surprise surprise the new tire always feels better.

I envy the people who have the option of testing new tires vs another set of new tires.

You want a nice set of Yokes with 5k on them? I'll sell you all five factory wheels and the Yokes (spare is not a Yoke) for 200 bucks, fellow Texan deal! Three hour drive to Dallas and they are yours.

 

On the car...



The old wheels are gone.

 

Look's fantastic!

 

Those look great!

What wheels are they?

 

I got them from OE Wheels in Florida. They are an exact duplicate of the optional chrome wheels that were introduced on the RX330 in, I think, '04. I've only seen a few in the wild but always really liked them.

 

^^ To my knowledge they were never offered in chrome on the RX330/350. They are always silver.

As you said though, they are replica's, as such its easy to re-manufacture a 'new' wheel instead of re-plating an OEM one.

PLEASE, don't paint the calipers yellow... it's gonna look ridiculous. Black/silver is best IMO.

 

LOL, that's why they make chocolate and vanilla.

 

Nice! I got the same wheels for mine put not in chrome. Got them used on ebay for a good price
