Default 2021 LS 500 Vapor Chrome Finish wheels

Hello all,

I'm looking for two replacement wheels for my '21 LS 500. The wheel description on the invoice is 20" Split 10-Spoke Alloy Wheels with Vapor Chrome Finish. I have the part number however when searching on line there appears to be two different finishes on these wheels. Lexus parts is not aware of different finishes. OE: 4261150780. There is no description of the finish when checking with Lexus Parts.
These are the two finishes: Finish: Light PVD Chrome or Finish: Black PVD Chrome

Does anyone know which one would match the invoice description above. Visually I'm thinking its the Light PVD Chrome. I've attached a photo of one of my wheels.


Thoughts?
Also if any of you have an web site for OEM Lexus Wheels please share too. Thanks in advance.

Have you contacted a mobile wheel repair facility in your area? You may get lucky with a repair. I don't have any experience but my buddy's body shop hires a local guy to do most of his repairs.

I priced these out at a couple Lexus dealers, they are around $1400 per wheel, I was on ebay last night, there is a bunch of them used for around 500-600 each, might be worth it to buy from there. Also, the Lexus dealers can probably send out for repair as mentioned, that may be 400-500 for repair. So a few options. Those definitely look like the bright chrome, not black chrome.

Default Beware Buying Used Wheels

A bent wheel might not show up until it is put on a balancing machine.

hey GSENT, yes I've asked about mobile repair and just bringing it to a repair shop. They won't touch these wheels because they are chrome. The only other option is to get OEM from third party seller. The dealer wants $1600 for just one wheel. Ugh. This is highway robbery.
Thanks for the suggestion though.

The local Lexus dealer by me quoted me $1600. This is probably due to it being in southern CA. We have to pay more for everything. UGH. I've been checking on line like Ebay and other third party sellers. Seems like a better deal definitely. Thanks for the suggestion. The third party sells are saying the wheel is OEM, but how can you be sure?

I'm not sure what you mean by "A bent wheel might not show up until it is put on a balancing machine"? Please explain.

$967 per wheel free shipping and no sales tax depending where you live.
I have ordered a wheel from them very happy great customer service.
That wheel can not be repaired.
The picture is my wheel on my ES350. The number for the wheel in the link is the number you put in your post.Any questions contact customer service on the links website.

I’m saying that purchasing used wheels has its pitfalls.
You can’t always visually inspect wheels for damage.
