No the noise reduction ones for the GS are 19". These are the 18" lux wheels. I wanted to swap the same tires, only a year old. Also maintain the same level of ride quality. I went one size up on tires not sure if there would be a discernible difference between the noise reduction rims and these.

Page 3, the wheel on the right is the new 2022 ES (Facelift) 18" premium package wheel. i like it better than UL NR wheels mostly cause it's new. To me the monotone finish/color of the UL wheel makes it look low-end. (although the design is nice)

I instead like the diamond cut/machined two-tone look & effect for a premium wheel.

Still looks like a stock wheel, you'll get bored of that once it's more common. I just have to de-chrome my window trim to complete the look. I really like the finish of the Black chrome. it was $1500 shipped to my door, should be able to get at least $1k for the ES rims.

Honestly most people get bored of their rims over time. Don't know what else to do to the car and sell it. With used car prices I plan on keeping it for at least 5 more years.

What did you think of the noise reduction performance? I also have a 450h and it's so quiet that the road noise is more noticeable than on a normal car. I might be interested in buying a set of noise reduction wheels if it's a major improvement.

Honestly I’m not entirely sure you’d have to drive a car with and without back to back to tell the real difference. I also up sized my tires. You also need 5mm spacers with extended studs for these rims to clear the front caliper on the GS.
