I just recently put on some 18 inch wheels from a 2021 LC on my 2016 LX570, does anyone know if there are some Lexus caps that will fit into these wheels to make them look flush?
I'm dealing with a similar situation with some Tundra wheels that I'm installing on our LX. Found that the Toyota emblem in the caps was removable. Took a chance and ordered some caps with the Lexus emblems on eBay. Got lucky, they fit. I did put a bit of CA glue to keep them in.
What size tires are you guys running ? Anyone veered away from 285/60/18 ? My '15 LX570 has 275/65/18s, but I'm tire shopping b/c they're loud mud tires & I hate them
Found some new take offs for <1/2 price but they're 265/70/18s & a little concerned about performance/fit
I have 275/70/18 Michelin LTX A/T2 and they’re super quiet, etc. They’re mounted on LC wheels. The tires don’t look ‘cool’, but they’ve been great in Houston in the heat and rain and were great in Colorado in the snow, etc. I haven’t really taken them offroad yet. I did have to remove the front mud flaps and then unscrew the plastic piece in the front and push it forward and then re-screw it in, but it looks totally normal. I would like to get some mud flaps, since the road debris seems to be stripping the paint off of my sliders on the parts that face that front tire. I’d love to get some more aggressive tires, but I love the quietness of the LX and hate road noise.
I just did the same thing. 18inch land cruiser wheels with michelin defender LTX MS2, stock size 285/60/18. Coming from 21inch wheels, its quieter also much more comfortable. Most noticeable on rougher ride, impacts and body shake are significantly less.
