Does anyone have or recall seeing any pics of the LS 19" 15-spoke allow wheels w/high gloss finish?
I'm familiar with the wheel style and have seen pics of the same wheel style with what I assume is the standard painted silver finish on CL. The "high gloss" finish is shown on Lexus.com, however, it's very hard to tell the color / gloss...in fact they have 2 gallery photos that contradict one another in terms of color / gloss.
These are the two pics of the wheels currently on Lexus.com. One looks very much a shiny graphite-ish finish, the other silver color.... Very curious to see the actual wheel in ambient light.

I could be wrong, but I think they are the same item, one just looks darker. They are the same normal gloss alloy wheels. I think the high gloss alloy finish comes only with the split spoke wheels. I have the 15 spoke wheels that look exactly like in the right-side picture but are just the normal alloy finish.
I am attaching another picture from Lexus.com with description.
The 15 spoke is just painted silver. It doesn't look anything like the photos on Lexus' website (unless they changed it recently). The high-gloss is a "hyper black" or "hyper silver," whichever way you want to call it. It's a black base coat with a silver hyper coat over the top that gives it a dark chrome look.
The 15 spoke just looks painted silver. Dealer pics of new 2016 LS will show what it really looks like. Search inventory then go that dealer's website to see real pictures.
Edit: found one
I really like the look of the high-gloss one. I have them and they look dark in low light conditions and titanium in bright light. It's very unique.

Thanks for the pics!
This really shows the split 7-spoke wheels nicely. With only the pics on Lexus' site, I definitely favored the 15 spokers. Now, I'm not so sure.....
BTW....the suggestion to check pics of actual dealer inventory is great. A quick browse of Autotrader is really exactly what I needed....embarrassed to say I didn't think of that first before posting for help here!
Finding pics of "lesser" cars that are typically sold in far greater numbers is so much easier that my typical search strategy was de-railed
