Thanks! One more thing: what did you guys do about TPMS?
a) nothing
b) use the lexus part# (~$370/set)
c) use the toyota part#

Thanks!

In my case, I left them off, as CostCo, where I bought the 18" Michelin Cross Terrains, don't install the tire pressure sensors.
Soon, I will be cutting and grounding a blue wire to disable the warning light.

A picture of my GX with dealer installed chrome wheels. This is on its arrival day before many, many augmentations since.

Someone asked me on private mail for a picture of the 4Runner wheels on a GX.
