I have a 2023 is500 with BBS matte black wheels but I prefer the dark metallic Enkei wheels. Anyone know what's the part number?

I’d like to see a real shot of these. I can only find the “perfect” images of these and none on real cars. Anybody have some to share?

Guy at work bought the is350 special edition. I’ll try to get his vin and check for part number tomorrow. Only pic I have of the wheels.

Nice. Ok, thanks. I was hoping they were less shiny than the wheels I have on my IS 350, the dark chrome ones. Looks like they are but not as matte as the BBS.

Do you know the part number for the Silver Enkeis perchance?

You're going to give up the BBSes? ¿Por qué?

I jest... I do like the silver Enkeis. That's what I originally wanted, but I have come around on the BBS wheels.

I can't seem to figure out which parts are the silver Enkei wheels by looking at parts.lexus.com... no visual aids and a lot of simiarly-sized wheels on there.

I agree. I think the BBS rims look like ***. As if “somebody just threw on different aftermarket rims just to change it up a bit but doesn’t truly have a sense of what suits the character of the car.” They look OKAY on the white, and blue exterior colours, but that’s about it..they look hella weird on caviar black with them being a matte finish.. There’s wayyy too much “open space.” When looking at the side of the car directly straight on, all you can see is brake rotor and caliper and not much rim. And when looking alongside the car (viewed from the front or back) they look awful too because the face is so positively offset from rim centre that it just looks so odd, too far “past” the sidewall, too stretched. BBS “style” rims look better with a deeper dish offset, closer to the centre point of the rim. Anyways I do agree the Enkei dark metallic look the best of all three. I am meeting with my Sales Rep in August to see what the ETA is for ordering the 2024, and hopefully at some point I’ll find out which rims will be coming on it…regardless, I’ll be immediately tossing those garbage Bridgestone Turanzas in the trash for Pilot Sport 4S, and probably while I do that I’ll have to look for somebody else with an IS350 F Sport 3 or a IS500 to swap with who has the Enkei’s already, if mine ends up coming with the BBS rims.

What was the new list price for the rims from the dealer when you checked the part number??

I think the BBS looks ok. They're lightweight and forged so that makes them a notch cooler than you're saying. My problem with them though is that 1) They look especially funny with the stock wheel gap. 2) They aren't very exclusive anymore. In fact these particular BBS wheels are like Lexus's version of Frank's Red Hot Sauce. They put that s*** on everything.

Lexus has commissioned BBS to make better looking forged wheels for their F cars in the past. So yeah in that sense they're disappointing.

I agree about the wheel gap. Another great point. I just think they kinda missed on the design as it pertains to this car specifically. It looks…off…

I’m aware of the weight savings. About 2 pounds lighter than the Enkeis in the rear and 1 for the fronts. Stronger too. Doesn’t really do enough that anybody would notice unless you’re racing the car on the track and then MAYBE you’d notice the reduced unsprung weight. I heard it was mostly a decision by Lexus to justify a price hike and higher margins on the sale, making it option less for the customer to choose..

I’m personally Team Silver. I think the design of the Enkeis with the color gives the car a more luxury look. The BBS’ are fine, just sportier than what I prefer on mine. Secondly…who knew the Silvers would be for one model year only?! (And the inaugural model year at that, which is enough for me to keep mine.) 😜

The dark Enkeis are a good blend of the sport and lux.

Anyone have the part number for the IS350 wheels that fit the 500? Non special edition.

TGPCanada

100% agreed with this. I have the darker enkeis on my infrared, but I actually think the silver enkeis combined with an infrared exterior give the car a more luxury look.
On a darker exterior (caviar, cloudburst), probably the darker enkeis or BBS suit it better . . Of course, personal preference and all. We are splitting hairs here because no matter combo you choice , it looks great because of the incredible styling of the IS.

these ones? I’ve been thinking about getting them for winter set
