I thought the same thing. Infrared/BBS is a winning combo.

Yes, wrapped with black (over PPF).

Quick snap waiting for my daughter to school. By the way in love with this tire shine; the wet look goes away on the 1st day but the deep, black gloss look remains for days. Looks very clean.





Tires after the 1 hour drive to work

Did it fling tire shine on your fenders?

🤷‍♂️ That usually happens to me after I apply tire shine, and it takes all of 60 seconds to walk around the car and wipe it off. It's either that or I wipe the tire shine with a towel before I drive it.

I posted these in the 3IS forums but figured I'd share here as well... Met up with Mr. @DLPTony and some other friends from the area at a little promotional meet put on by Detail Garage. 'twas nice! edit: Wow, Tony totally beat me to it.

A wild IS 500 appeared at my house. I took pity on it and turned off the ASC, changed the blinker interval to 5 and the color of the car in the Panoramic / Backup Camera. It's no longer white when you look at the screen.

The Supra lurks...


Most pictures do not adequately convey the lovely bright gray color the '23 Enkei wheels come in. The pictures from Lexus would make you think this was black.

A little bit, not as much as others I’ve tried. It also sat on the tires overnight.

I still want to find a set of these locally to me for running winter or all-season, and I can run a dedicated summer tire on my BBS.

I looked them up on the Enkai site to see how much they cost to replace but they were not listed on their site so wondering if only available via Lexus dealer or private sale.

I love the dark Enkeis! Where my Silvers are lux and the BBS’ are sporty, these are the perfect balance.

In reference to the tire shine, I keep a roll of paper towels in the trunk to wipe the excess from the groove between the wheels and tires, the tire itself, and out of the side treads. Half the time I have to breakout the quick detailer to wipe it from the fender.

They are quite nice. Good balance between giving that sporty yet luxury look. Not the highest quality pic, but nonetheless:

Someone in another thread posted the part #s that I copied into my phone. Don't have the post saved unfortunately and I can't remember if these are for the silver or the dark version.
