Default '09 GS 350/460's at dealers yet?

I ask a ebayer seller what year his GS350/460 takeoff wheels and tires are off of and I get a reply that they're off an '09.
I don't think '09s are at dealers yet.
Are they?

I think there is a delay to help move out '08s off dealer showrooms...

So this Ebayer is full of excrement.

I'll wait for a set of stock 18's without tires.

I'm sure there are some 09s at some dealers. Not every dealer is sitting on 08 inventory still. So I say yes its possible! Find out what dealer and call to confirm.

Joe ill sell my gsyders if you want them? Are you looking for winter rims?

no I guarantee you won't see any 09 GS until Lexus sends out the press release

GS is pretty much always the last model to be updated

Mike,as much as I hate to say it but I've said it here before here.
I'm not fond of the look of G-Spiders on a GS.
They look great on an IS(aas you know,I bought them for mine) but not on a GS to me.

I bought my '08 GS 460 last year in December and the dealer had very few '08 GS models at that time. Even though a model is "out" doesn't mean the dealer has gotten a full allocation of the model in his inventory. Most dealers won't have a good inventory until the end of the year, based on my experience.

yea the 5 star OEM are my fav...I do like the GSyder on the red, gives a nice contrast and look. But enough talk about OEM rims I need something different I do want the 5 star for my winter set up and to sell the G's if anyone is interested or wants to swap for their 5 stars hit me up.
