Wow man thats REALLY nice! I like the sideskirts and the design of the wheels. That brushed aluminum is blingin!!! LOL

Those are staggered wheels? I love the way staggered fittiments look on SUV's

Inspiration for your new RX eh?

its funny man i was looking at EVERY RX330 i saw today thinking about this car! LOL What type of wheels are those?

Also I thought 4wheel drive vehicles had to have identical sized tires (unless they came staggered from the factory). When you change the tire sizing (stagger) what other changes do you have to make?

Damn those wheels look good!

I never understood why someone would take a nice luxury SUV, completely destroy the ride integrity with those wheels and then throw on a fart can and make it loud.

Unbelievable and classless!

Wow...........dont hold back, tell us how you REALLY feel!! LOL

I guess different strokes for different folks. I think it looks classy (no chrome add on spinners and ridiculous wings, etc).

Looks? Yes, it looks great, but is it a garage queen or is it actually driven? If they want to look at it all day, great job! If they want to drive it, the factory 18" wheels looked great and are actually designed to maintain the soft ride Lexus is known for. But, as long as we have these people throwing race junk in cars like a Honda Civic, I guess you can't expect much more.

Those wheels are made by Rowell and they are Japanese I believe. I don't understand the fart-can exhaust comment, since the exhaust on the car is made by TRD (you know, those guys who made aftermarket parts SPECIFICALLY for Toyota?) and is probably made to max out the exhaust performance of the Harrier.

But different stroke for different folks. I don't know who the owner of the car is and I only found those pics somewhere online to show you guys what some Indonesians do to their cars. If my guess is right, it doesn't matter if the car is daily driven or not, since the owner probably owns a slew of other cars. The Harrier costs like over US$70,000 here in Jakarta.

But thanks for lookin'.

I am located in Jakarta Indonesia. In fact I just bought a black Harrier myself. It comes with the 3000cc engine, AIRS suspension, side mirror blinkers, panoramic sunroof, illuminated door sills and 18" rims. You can see the pictures on my other thread somewhere on the main page....

that looks lame for indonesians, people i know from that decent should have 24s and the car should be slamed to the ground with fenders covering the wheels. Thats too conservative!!
