Thanks guys! The best car I’ve owned so far! Love everything about it from the looks, engine, comfort, feels like a great package deal for the money so far.

Awesome deal! Congrats on a great car at a fantastic price! By the way, love the 2018 GX460 too. Tried to convince my wife we should have that instead of a minivan as our family car, but she ended up getting a new minivan instead, haha!

I wish mine came with those. I like them better than my 20 spokes from the factory.

Those are 10 split spoke forged wheels. The 20 spoke forged hand polished are these.

I have the other 20 spokes that were an option.

Which look pretty good in this picture.

The gx is a great vehicle as well, the gas mileage is not too great at around 20mpg but its definitely the comfortable family vehicle SUV and not minivan, lol. I told my wife there was no way in hell we are owning a minivan!

The official Lexus name for those is "Forged 10 split spoke" because they are actually 10 spokes at the hub that get split (fork) as they go towards the rim. See this thread:

Thats funny because they are more 20 spoke than the ones on your car. Those wheels look to split way later than mine. Maybe it is just the picture.

Either way sorry for the thread hijack...

If you look at them closely especially in real life, they are full individual spokes in two separate layers. They cross each other making an X, which is why it is called "20 spoke".
