Post Optional Wheel Inserts

Does anyone have a picture of the optional wheel inserts that replace the pie plates from Lexus? I am considering them.

I've had them on my Black/ecru for a few months, since they became available, and I think they are a major improvement. Considering the cost of new wheels, these replacement covers are a great investment in the look of your car.

I have pictures, but don't know how to load them into this message (where are the instructions?? I click on "img" but just get some code stuff -- I'm sure there is a simple explanation somewhere, isn't there?)

However, I have just uploaded two pretty good photos to my image gallary on this forum.

Try this link: https://www.clublexus.com/gallery/sh...at=500&thumb=1

There are two photos there, including a close-up.

Right click your image in the gallery and look at "properties" to get the URL address, copy it and then paste it in "IMG" when you post:


Have done one for you, now you can try another one yourself.

Jeez ... even TIm's mouse has an SC

Tim ...
Another way to insert an image into your post is to scroll down when you've finished entering your text and go to the "Attach file" section where you can click the Browse button and go to the location on your hard drive where your desired pic is. Double-click it and the path will appear in the little text box.

Be warned, though ... if you preview your post after you enter the path to the pic, the path text disappears for some strange reason.

Default Thanks

Thanks for the lessons in posting photos.

Now, does anyone know where I can get a set of replacement wheel covers for my model SC430? They should be about one-half inch in diameter.

Just to test the system, let me post this photo which demonstrates what others have been saying about this car: it does attract *****, even with the old wheel covers.
