2013 RX 350 19 inch wheels
Hello, I had no luck with a global search of "third party wheels", thus this thread.
I live north of Boston and winters here can s*ck, so I bought some Blizzack winter tires.
So far so good. I have my summer tires sitting in the cellar and I wanted to get some
inexpensive wheels so the seasonal change is less time consuming. The issue I'm
running into is that "inexpensive" wheels don't seem to exist for this model.
At the rates I'm getting quoted by junk yards, I may as well buy new ones. So, the question
I have is this. Is this the reality, am I just better off getting new rims and that's it, OR, are
there other avenues that you can suggest to get much lower cost rims?
Thanks. As an aside, the ride on my like new 2013 (50,000) is SOMEWHAT better than
my 2012 Hyundai Accent .... ;^) The ride is so smooth that the wife has fallen asleep when
we take long rides up the coast.

For OEM I suggest you look for used Toyota wheels from the Sienna, Venza and Highlander on eBay and Craigslist. They will fit perfectly as all of them and the RX350/450h are based on the same chassis and have the same brakes and wheel specifications. You could also expand your search to the Camry and ES350 if any of them have 19 inch wheels (I think the newer ones do). You will also have to buy 4 new TPMS sensors for most of these wheels or the ones below. RockAuto is a good source, or get them from the place that installs your tires.
For aftermarket wheels I recommend this site. I got my wheels from them a few years ago. They sell good quality replica OEM style wheels for great prices.
