They look stunning. Would love to see some daytime shots. I love the dark finish. Is it darker or same as the liquid metal finish on the GS460 18s?
It's interesting you are running 40 sidewall on 19s. The OEM is 40 on 18s, so on 19s you would normally put 35s. Are you having no rubbing issues?

I've been following the threads on suspension, and I haven't been able to figure out which coil provides the best outcome on the AWD GS. If I can find one that performs consistently without wobbles/shakes, I'm going for it. That much discomfort is just too much of a dealbreaker for me - it's a luxury car, after all.
As far as F-sport springs - Lexus offers those specifically for RWD, and not AWD, and won't install them. Someone else (Kcook, i think) put on some f-sports, and has mentioned some issues. If someone figures something out though, I'm all ears!

In addition to the great design, Lexus used what is in my opinion the best finish on an alloy wheel: Liquid Silver. That's what the stock GS460 wheel is painted in as well.
The old wheels were too dark and too matte. These are shiny and smoky.

Looks really good bro, the 19s could pass for 20s because of the non-lip factor. I wish Lexus made a bunch of OEM rim choices like BMWs does. That would be nice. Looks really good.

...there's another set of part numbers that have yet to be released to us. These part numbers we suspect will be specific to the GS - at least marketed specifically to the GS. I currently have the 19x8 option on order and may arrive to me in the next couple days. I'm imagining it will be the same wheel design, just different offset. The 19x9 wheel option however is on restriction so nothing to look forward to on this one.

When you say the new wheel will have a GS specific offset, does that mean you need a spacer with the existing 19" wheel?
