JM Lexus had all 3 wheels on GS's in stock. The choices are excellent, but the G Spiders don't really go with the look of the car. They are beautiful, but they look "old school" compared to the design of the car. It really needs something cleaner and more modern IMO.

not even in this pic?

Can the 18" 5 spoke gaphite wheel fit on the GS300 AWD? I just want to make sure there's nothing on the AWD version that would interfere with the 18" wheels. Please forgive me if this is an ignorant or stupid question.

I guess I've seen the mesh wheel style like the G-Spider and I've looked at the Salinas for over a year that they are distinctive to me. Since the spokes are so close, the shape of the Salinas always made me consider it a 9-split-spoke wheel vs a mesh type.

The 'Machined Tourmaline' and 'G-Spider' 18" wheels both MSRP @ $250 apiece.

Plus tires (coupe tires, 245/40/18)

I know the GS's I've seen in the northeast dont have a spare in the trunk, because they all have 17" runflat tires.

So figure $250ish per wheel + tires (Pilot A/S imo!) + spare wheel & Tire, you will likely be close to $2300.

Then you can toss the 17" wheels with runflats on you're old GS!

cheap!

OTOH, the stock GS430 wheel (5 spoke?) still lists @ ~$550 apiece

here's an old PC from when I was rim hunting- not black, but you prob wouldn't know that if I didn't tell

Thank you very much. I picked up a set of tourmalines from Derrell (sp?) when I picked up the car from Sewell service this morning. I just need to decide on the tires. I was thinking of the pzero NERO m+s. Most of my driving is highway. I also picked up the small TTE rear spoiler I can't wait to get them on the car. Catback exhaust and probably an intake and I'm done.

Also, both of the guys that I dealt with from lexus-parts.com were very informative and helpful. What a great resource to have at the dealership that I would be going to anyway.
