Default new wheels 24LC

couldnt deal with the OEM wheels(you know the ones)
Avant Garde
M520R Graphite Metallic
9.0x21x+15
10.5x21x+15
stock tires 245/275
excellent fit/finish but I did have to paint the lugbolt holes black(my choice)
24s dont have lug nuts, they went to lugbolts
took about 4 weeks once ordered

Aside from the flip phone quality photos, the wheels look good.

Maybe it's just me but I prefer the mat black wheels I got with my Bespoke 24. I wonder if non Bespoke owners can order those direct from the dealer?

Very true. Wheels are very subjective things in cars. Even though I do love my eom mat wheels, I do hate the crappy offset Lexus chose for our cars.

Save them if you have the room. It will help the resell value of the car and if you ever trash one of your new wheels you have a backup.

Those wheels look great, but with my OCD tendencies I need a wheel that's easy to clean since I clean them very often. I'm still waiting for a good option that prevents brake dust, like ceramic brakes (not the ceramic coating, since that just reduces some of the brake dust, but definitely not all).

I use a compressor and foam cannon with P&S break buster on the wheels. Let it sit for 5 minutes then power wash it off using a 40 degree tip ... finish the rotors with Hyde's serum rustopper and you will never get rust on the rotors either. Then air dry with a drier. Easy enough regardless of wheel type.
