may i inquire as to what you are attempting to accomplish with a BBK?
stopping distance or styling?

if its the former - that can be accomplished with a good set of tires - you can get a "summer" tire in a non-OEM tire size without throwing off the speedo.
its its the latter - im sorry i dont know the part #s

ill do you one better - caliper covers

255/50/20 was the tire size i was thinking of. this person put it on:
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/rx-...x8-wheels.html

at least on tire rack - there is a summer tire Pirelli Pzero (max summer tire) in that size.
245/50/20 should also work - as well but i am not sure of the options available in this size.

i'm almost sure this fits. highlander calipers are an upgrade to the camry. the highlander and rx350 calipers are the same. not sure who makes this. maybe stoptech?

Look into MGP caliper covers. I'm looking at some black ones to go along with Nebula Grey.

Default Brake upgrade kits - RX350

Is there any brake upgrade kits available for the 4th gen rx350? Ours are starting to go bad and we wanted to upgrade them instead of replacing them
