Here you go, I looked it up in the online Lexus manual for you...

CHASSIS
464
– TIRES AND WHEELS (Type A)
Tire size P225/55R17 95H
Tire inflation pressure
Recommended cold tire inflation pressure Front 220 kPa (2.2 kgf/cm2 or bar, 32 psi)
Rear 220 kPa (2.2 kgf/cm2 or bar, 32 psi)
For sustained high speeds above 160 km/h (100 mph), in
countries where such speeds are permitted by law, add 20 kPa
(0.2 kgf/cm2 or bar, 3 psi) to the front tires and rear tires, but
never exceed the maximum cold tire inflation pressure molded
on the tire sidewall.
Wheel size 17 x 7 1/2JJ
Wheel nut torque 103 N·m (10.5 kgf·m, 76 ft·lbf.)
NOTE:
For complete information on tires (e.g. replacing tires or replacing wheels), see “Checking tire inflation pressure”
through “Aluminum wheel precautions” on page 469 through 486.
