I've known about this site for some time, but I had no idea they were doing this. I can't imagine how a Lexus dealer could expect to sell another wheel at their prices with these available.

BTW - I have no interest in this company, I found them when looking for wheels for my Supra. IMHO, it might be worth contacting them if you have bent an OEM wheel and don't have wheel specific insurance.

Those have to be the lowest quality cast wheels on the market for that price. If I ever damage my $150,000 OEM BBS wheels I will just replace them all with something lighter

Obviously you didn't read. They're OEM. BBS. They're take-offs and refinished wheels. Guaranteed.

^^^^It says

"Wheel Type: STOCK ALLOY WHEELS, FACTORY OEM RIMS, ORIGINAL CAR TRUCK WHEEL"

Sounds like OEM to me.

Front wheels for example cost $1,100.00 retail and the stock part numbers don't even match up with website.....if they are OEM, why is the part number different?

Why would they need to use the Lexus part number? It's their internal part number - it means nothing to anyone but them, same as Lexus's part numbers only mean something to Lexus.

If you want to spend $1500 per wheel from Lexus, rock it. I wouldn't if I didn't need to.

Good point, I guess avoid curbs and rocks on the freeway and you'll be fine

Sure. Tell that to the 4x4 that fell out of a truck on the freeway in front of me and dented the 5Zigen GN+ on my Scion bad enough to lose air. Wheels get abused. The OEM wheels on my Supra have been straightened a few times just from driving and not hitting anything undue - just driving in California.

Anyway - just thought I'd post this here in case someone does have a wheel incident and wants an economical solution to the problem without killing your entire insurance deductible and then some.

Those prices are too good to be true. Even refinished take-offs would be more expensive than $300. I wonder if they actually have any wheels in stock.

Also dealers at times buy aftermarket wheels and they get a better deal on the new ones with a core trade. thats how i got my replacement wheels on my sl55. 500 bucks for pilot sports new with only 10 miles and look like new!

If it wasn't Christmas time, I'd just order one and see for the heck of it. Bah...I'll just call them tomorrow and find out what the deal is.

Nice find LO!

This site is getting bookmarked right away. Hope I'll never have to make a call to them though. *Knock on wood*
