Not a whole lot, but here is what's done:
22x9.5 Euromax wheel, matching color. Bushwacker fender flares and OEM rear spoiler.

Looks good to me. I would like to see more people putting wheels on the LX.

That's the problem. There aren't very many wheels to choose from due to the LX's weird wheel bolt pattern.

yeah 5x150 bolt-pattern is a bear. I waited over 2 years to get something nice on mine... Got the Foose spank 5 20". Made to the same Toyota/Lexus factory wheel spec..

Are saying the custom wheel companies out there won't make wheels to fit this vehicle? That seems hard to believe.

if you get forged wheels, they pretty much can drill them to any spec. i got forge-tec wheels from a tundra i'm trying to put on but I just found out the bore is too small for the front hub. I'm waiting for spacers to come in so I can have it installed this week.
