Agree, looks like Lexus G-Spiders. Came on some Lexus models as an optional wheel or more often sold in Lexus parts depts. Had a couple of different finishes
Thanks guys, the wheels helped seal the deal for me, a great option over most of the standard versions IMHO.
Keep them clean, waxed and dry, as they tend to rust. I had a set, and sold them at the first sign of rust. Too, they are a very heavy wheel which hurts handling. Both issues are surprising, considering they are made by Enkei.
That said, they look very cool and I sometimes miss them for that reason!
That might explain why they are as inexpensive as they are to buy. You can get them for less than $250 each at multiple sources. All the other Lexus wheels are twice that.
Glad you said this. I was thinking about buying a set for my '07.

Instead of the G-spiders, check out the variety of "lightweight/racing" wheels offered by aftermarket manufacturers. Enkei's RPF1's are in the $250 ea. range. Too, they're Japanese!
These Enkei XM-6 wheels with Vredestein QuatracPro tires turned out to be 9 lbs.lighter per wheel/tire unit
than the stock wheels with Pirelli run flats. Much improved ride and handling.

Um, you might want to check that. More like about $375 each nowadays...
Sorry forgot to load pics. Talking with a guy to install unit in lower section for screen with audio apple carplay and backup camera, also seeking to have backseat made into luggage area.
Sounds about right to me. We got our Smoky Granite Mica '07 with 62k miles on it, clean Carfax, all Lexus service history in Phoenix for 26k in July. Car looks brand new inside and out. Hard to believe it's 14 years old. Quite a change from the Miata I used to drive. Got rid of the run flats and put on a set of Vredesteins from Tire Rack. Night and day difference in ride.
