I'm interested in getting the Luxury Package in my next IS350, but it can apparently be had "with 18's and summer tires" for a bit extra $$.

What does the non-18s Luxury package come with? 17s? or a different wheel pattern of 18s and all-weather rubber?

I like the split 5-spoke wheels that are omnipresent on Lexus ads, but I've also seen a 350 ("X-package") with 5-spoke wheels (not split) that I don't care for...

Can someone link me to or provide some pics so I can make sure I'm getting what I want?

This might help.

and this also, comparison of 07 and 08 5 spoke split wheels.

The standard wheel on ALL non Lux/Sport IS's is the 17" multi-spoke. However, Lexus corporate doesn't usually allocate cars to dealers with the 17's. Virtually ALL RWD IS's are allocated to dealers with the optional 18" wheels. If you wanted the 17's you could get a AWD or special order them on a RWD.
18" wheels are standard on Luxury and Sport models.

IS350jet

This is the 18" optional wheel (standard on Luxury and Sport models) Almost ALL RWD IS's are allocated to dealers with this wheel.



This is the standard 17" wheel that comes on ALL AWD IS's. If you want them on a RWD car you would special order the car with them.

Also, Zeus 69, you have the option to just get the standard 17"s, then upgrade with aftermarket 18/19" wheels, then sell the original 17"s afterwards.

That way, even though you spend $$ on aftermarket wheels and tires, it won't cost you so much after selling the 17"s. It may be a more cost-efficient way to get bigger better handling wheels/tires compared to just upgrading to stock 18"s.

Dont even bother with the stock 18's... you'll just end up buying aftermarket newayz
