OEM Lexus Wheels on TSX?

Did a quick search, but found nothing. I'm thinking I have seen some Lexus wheels on the TSX before.

Anyone have any of these on their TSX? Think they would look good? Thinking the TSX should have had 18's on it anyway.

one problem OP.. Lexus/Toyota center bores are 60.1 vs. 64.1 for honda/acuras... Unless you spend the extra money and finding a good wheel shop to machine the opening to fit our cars, it won't' work.

Dang, so hub centric rings will not work?

Here are the first ones.

They come stock on the 2011 F Sport.

Hubcentric rings only work if the center bore is larger than your existing bore. For example, you can downsize from 72.1 to 64.1 but not the other way around.

That's what I was afraid of. Well there goes that. Trying to find a strong 18" OEMish wheel for the wifes TSX. She's attracted to pot holes it seems and is not wanting to lower it at the moment.

If she's attracted to potholes then she'll want 17" wheels.

Yeah I know it means more rubber, yet they look to small on the big body of the TSX.

yeah lexus has a smaller bore on OEM wheels sadly, i really wanted to buy some GS-F sports, but it was a fail when i checked the bore size. I would recommend you look at nissan/infiniti wheels because they will be within our fitment

Yeah Infiniti rims work. I put on a set of G35 sport package rays before and they fit fine except they are way too wide.

So did they end up not working? I was considering getting those...

Late to this game, but if you want a strong OEM 18, consider the 350Z 25th Anniversary rims. Fronts are 18x8 +30 ET and rears are 18x8.5 +33 ET. Square set ups of all fronts or all rears can be found on my350z.com and on Craigslist sometimes. My advice would be to run the staggered but with 245/40/18 tires all around, or a set of fronts. The Z rears are going to poke out front of the TSX unless the car is dropped. You can find sets for as low as $600. I was seriously considering these for my wagon as well. I think they'd flow nicely. Only downside is they are as heavy as the TSX stock 17s, which I guess isn't too bad since they are 18s.

I like those alot. You should go with those. If you get 19s you probably won't have to lower IMO

As posted several times above, the hub bore doesn't work.
