I really like the way the new 350 wheels match [complements] the new grill, but sad that the 350 uses the rather cheap looking plasticky grill from the 200t, rather than the 450h's more "grande" looking grill with lots of chrome.
The 450h should have used the 350's wheels; the new 450h's wheels look terrible IMO.
Those new 350 wheels could be 18", but they could also be 19"???
No worries it is the same grill just with different lighting. However bumpers are not the same look at the foglights. If 350 is Luxury then pictured 450h is either Premium or Executive trim.
EDIT: I just went through the pdf sheet and it seems like 9 spoke wheel pictured on GS250t is indeed standard 17' version of '15 Luxury rim.
And Matador Red Mica finally made a come back. The best red paint ever!
From their latest brochure:
NB. Nothing about the use of the old Premium 9x spoke split 18x8 alloys.
Thanks for this info! I've always been a fan of the five spoke wheel design...may consider swapping my 2013's 18" wheel for the five spoke 2016 wheel at some point.
The 19" luxury package wheels are much better than the original luxury package wheels that came on the 13-15 GS's.

I find them more aggressive than F-Sport wheels and better fitting as well.
I agree there is hardly any better classic wheel than properly designed 5 spokes so Im glad its back. 2006 GS 5 spokes are amazing right on the money.

Agreed. I rarely see any fourth generation GS's with the OEM stock 17" wheel. I happened to see one that pulled up next to me in the rain. Not really a fan of it but i'm sure it rides nice with all that extra sidewall:
Spoke to my dealership parts department today who said that none of the wheels show up in their system as available for purchase. He says they are likely all being used for production GS's at the moment and won't become available for separate purchases for a few more months...
He gave me a part number for the 2016 GS350 18" wheel option (4261130D60) but that comes back with no results even when searching via google! He couldn't even give me a price quote yet because it doesn't appear as available for order.

That would sure be disappointing if your wheels were damaged beyond repair in an accident.
