Default PICS* Just had some RX F Sport wheels installed. This is just the beginning haha

Just installed some RX F Sport 20” wheels on this thing and loving it! Just got the car a month ago and the mod bug is hitting me already. Have some other things in the mail coming soon too. Also installed carbon fiber rear emblem inserts and had windows tinted.

Very nice, this is the same wheel setup I'm going to get for my NX300 as well. What is your tire size?

The RX wheels look so good on the NX! I think we have the same carbon fiber logo insert on the trunk

The rear emblem on the ‘19 NX 300t F doesn’t have the “ fill “. I wanted to do carbon like my rcf but it’s one solid piece. FYI

I’m sure it’s the same, I think it’s only one seller that sells them on EBay

Love those wheels. They look so much better than the F sport NX wheels, which I think are hideous.

Do you have a part number for the wheels by chance and estimated cost? When we need to replace tires on my wife's NX, I will probably go this route with wheels since they look so nice!

Thanks,

I got them on eBay. Just be careful because there are a lot of reps on there but there are also some good deals on actual OEM wheels. I would suggest looking at the sellers selling OEM take offs with new tires included.

Thanks, I'm checking out ebay now. Mind posting your seller and part number of the wheel? I see what you mean about reps... almost everything I've come across is a replica and the finish doesn't look anywhere near what yours look like. Forgot to ask a few questions as well.

Our NX has the 18" wheels. By going to 20" are you having any issues with rubbing or clearance with any component on the vehicle? Seems like a large jump going from 18" to 20" to me so I wanted to make sure before seriously pursing this. How is ride quality compared to what you had? (I take it you had the stock wheels/tires?)

Just saw you are in VA. Where abouts? I'm in Gainesville.

Thanks again,
-Nigel

I have a non-f sport nx, running 245/45R20 with Pirelli Cinturato P7 All Season Plus. They are a bit more stiffer, not very noticeable during city driving. going over potholes feels almost the same although if the freeway has some random dips in the road you feel those a lot more. I used to run the factory 18” at 40psi and they ride is very similar to the 20’s at 32psi, overall i think it’s worth the little bit stiffer ride by how good the 20’s look on the NX.

Just checked and the seller isn’t on there anymore. It seems he only had the one set that I bought. As for the size, no rubbing or anything like that...there’s still room for a drop too. Ride quality is a little stiffer but barely noticeable and definitely worth it for the look!

I live in Centreville so we’re very close to each other!
