I use maxpider and purchased the 2007-2012 set for the 2013+ LWB. I snapped off most of the clips on the floor that are not meant to be removed on the 2013+ models. Best way to fit the maxpider mats. They were fairly affordable also being that there was an oversupply of mats for the 2007-2012 models. I was able to get a new set off ebay two months ago for $70 shipped. I'll keep my eye off another set as a spare. I was also able to purchase the rear trunk mat for $55 shipped from amazon for the ultra luxury package that has a smaller trunk.
how durable have they been. If your looking for a spare, kinda makes me think they wont last to long.
thanks for your input. It was very helpful.
Just wanna make sure they will last long enough to make it a worthwhile purchase.
you have any pics?

I had another set in a different vehicle. Used them for 2 years. They held up fine. theyre softer mats. I prefer them over weathertechs (even though Im sure weathertechs will outlast them) bc your feet doesnt slide around as much.
I could do pics but YouTube will have much more close up videos

Is the data controller install similar to the 08 model?
I know the wire harness is different. I have to look if I have the correct t one. If I dont, whats the best way to locate one?
once the data controller is in, Ill put back my 22 wheels and tires. Then itll go for fender work. I have aggressive offsets. 20 on the front and 33 on the rear. The wheels are XO Luxury New York. My 08 is on their site.
What aftermarket floor liners are you using? I am not finding any from Weathertech (RWD) or 3D Maxpider. I dont like the all weather Lexus ones.

So through some incompetence of local wheel shops in my area, I learned the following from @CJITTY .
2008 and 2015 have the same frequency for the tpms, this it should be easy to update the codes since I kept my wheels from the 08 and didnt take the sensors out.
since I want my oem 19 and aftermarket 22 wheels to work, I am buying programmable sensors and a device to do it myself. All for about $185. (Not Installation of sensors)
Basically, our car can only store 5 codes. (Spare is the 5th code).
if I am going to ever put the stock on for whatever reason, I want the sensors to also work.
they will be here tomorrow and Ill have them changed out this weekend. (put the 08 sensors back on tue prior ride).

I wonder if putting a grommet in Maxspider is possible so as to not snap the clips.

so very easy to do. I marked the sensors location but I either marked them incorrectly or they installed them in the wrong locations. At least this is the theory for now.
somethiny to note...these sensors cant be programmed with air in the tire per their tech.
so the sensors are in and reading. Ill reclone them in them in their correct locations.
alignment was done on setting 3.
also got new spline lugs for her.
