Can someone explain to me why one would want a 20 inch tire versus the standard 18 inch tire. As as guy who likes cars but not exactly an "enthusiast", bigger tires just sounds to me to be bigger replacement costs later. What am I missing?
Most 20's cost less than 18's unless the 20's are not a volumn seller and today most 20's are big sellers. There is less tire on 20's since the sidewalls are shorter. In other words the tire diameter is about the same, the wheel is larger and the sidewall is not as tall on 20's. Ride may be harsher with 20's depending on suspension but not always. Cornering will usually be better with 20's because shorter sidewalls flex less. But as many have said it's mostly about the look!

volume seller by tire rack/Ebay or lexus? I have personally seen more 18s in nyc than 20s...this is a sample size of about 25+ 4RX I have seen on the streets of nyc

I didn't mean volumn seller but more the demand for a specific tire size. Lexus is a drop in the bucket by itself. Some sizes fit more vehicles than others and 20's are found on more vehicles each year.
I'm assuming you have the base model. If so, can you post a pic after you get those wheels on? I like those wheels but don't want the F sport to get them. Want to see how it would look with those on a base model. Thanks!
2016 Lexus RX 350 base with F Sport 20" wheel upgrade, mud flaps and Pinnacle 30 tint sides, Air 90 Llumar windshield

for sure, i have a caviar black RX350. It has the premium package and mark levinson stereo. It was odd that it didnt have upgraded wheels with those options.

Awesome, yeah I want to see how it looks with the non f sport grill and those wheels. Thanks!
That is the tint brand and amount of visible light that is transmitted into the car. Tint was applied to the windshield. 90 = 90% light transmission. Almost clear.

Your RX looks great! How much can you get for the 18" wheels and tires?
