Default i found a 21" kinda-oem looking wheel

i know some guys were wishing that lexus made a 21" wheel option for our cars -- i found a wheel, made by A_R_T (the mercedes tuner) that will work on our cars (in fact, it's advertised for LS460) and looks like an oem wheel (a pre-facelifted S550 wheel, actually).

here's the link: http://www.art-tuning.jp/models/wheel-japan/wheel.html

be forewarned that it's not cheap, though: they're 126,000 yen/wheel, which works out to ~$1600/wheel as of today. http://www.xe.com/ucc/convert/?Amoun...rom=JPY&To=USD

our cars can take the 21x9/10 5x120 option listed, but you'd have to get hub rings.

Not hot at all, especially for the price. Just keep your factory wheels.

It looks like a scaled-up Civic OEM alloy wheel:
