Default Does anyone have these OEM option wheels?

I am trying to see how these look in person. But, I cannot find any actual photos online.

Does anyone here have them?

They are 06-07 GS 18" wheels in Carbon Metallic. I want to put them on a Graphite Grey '03 GS300 SD.

Any help is appreciated.

Hey Eric,

I have a set of these that I'll be replacing with other wheels in about 3 weeks. They are on my 08 GS. Wheels are in perfect condition, no dings, scratches or curb rash what so ever. I had them sold on e-bay for $610.00 plus shipping but the guy was a non-payer. I was going to re list them on E-Bay in a few weeks. Below is a link to pics.

Thanks Norman. I am going to reply to your PM in a minute. The wheels I was referring to in this thread are actually the 06-07 style wheels (not the directional 08 style).

Thanks again.

I have a set available as well man. They are just sitting in the garage. I have to admit when I see a stock GS I still think its a great looking car even with the stock wheels at the stock height.

I think you meant to put this in the 2nd gen GS section.

You did say, 2003 GS, right?

Anyhow, check this thread, you'll can see those wheels on a 2nd gen GS in the thread below.

Thanks for all of the replies. I actually was wondering if anyone had pictures of these wheels in this COLOR-CARBON METALLIC. I have seen pics in silver & chrome but not carbon metallic.

Thanks again for the help.

Would still like a local set of the 06-07 GS wheels but, for now, went in a different direction....

2008 IS350 Wheels in Liquid Graphite....I think they will match my Graphite Sportdesign....

your best bet would be to post in the for sale forum, and see who is willing to sell you their carbon metallic wheels. another alternative would be to check various lexus dealers and see who has the best price on these wheels. i would recommend you try carson toyota as well, they are very competitive price wise (they are CL sponsored vendors here)

I was going to do the same thing but couldn't find the Graphite one's so I got the Normal silver one's. This is what it looked like!

Thanks man. Yeah, I saw your pics and they helped me decide to get the wheels. I think the silver ones looked really good. Did you sell the car??

Were you happy with the way they looked & handled? Did it make you want to drop the car? I really don't wanna lower my ride....been there/done that with past cars.

The wheels should be here by mid-week so I will post pics once they're on the car.

Thanks for posting the pic.

Yes, I sold the car and pretty much regret it. It was a sweet SD with saddle interior. The wheels did make it handle better but I did want to lower it just a little. Never did lower the car but I still have the wheels stored for something in the future....Lord , I think I have a few cars that they may fit.....

Be sure to post those pics!
