My in-laws just brought my wheels back from FLA & they are now in my garage. I have been in touch with Brandon at tirerack & am pricing a set of tires to install at the same time & waiting to hear back from him (no sense putting those crappy OE Turanza's on the new rims lol).

My ES 330 is also going in Saturday for tint & a complete rust-proof/detail package. I will post pics very soon (before & after).

The rims are in fantastic condition & can't wait to install these.

sdahee, have you bought a set already? Just curious how much you were able to get them for. They should be 'plug & play' with no issues btw....that's why I got them. Stay tuned, I should have the car the way I want it in the next few weeks & she's going to look gorgeous when it's finished!

^I'm not sure if you can keep the AVS but I believe it can be removed.

From the pics I see here you should be fine as to the problem you pm'ed me about. It would be tough to hide a bump out job.
I love them on my ride!!!
What did you end up paying for them?
I got mine for $450 with the brand new stock tires.
Congrats!

I paid 3 bills (plus shipping) & no tires lol....you got a sweet deal tonka.

Hey, does anyone know what model & year these 17" OE Lexus alloys are from? More importantly...will they fit (plug & play) on my 2005 ES 330?
