Smile Other Lexus OEM Rims for my RX300

I've narrowed my desire for replacement rims on my '01 RX300. I would like to get 18" rims and put on a set of 235/55R18 tires (type TBD). If I were to search for a set of OEM rims from another model of Lexus, which ones would work best?

Thanks in advance.

The RX330/350 wheels work really well with our RX300's. You may need spacers, 5mm will most likely work.

What about other models besides RX? Anything I should be considering?

Might as well go for the aftermarket instead of buying OEM from other vehicles. I've seen a lot of RX with other rims, but so far I agree with tcheung87. RX330's 18" rims looks really good on 300's, then go for Bridgestone Dueler H/L Alenza. This combination will really make your RX300 noticeable.
I myself have been looking for RX330 take off rims but I haven't found one yet.
