Actually reused the stock tires...swapping tires and tpms once I sell back to lexus. Wheels are being sold for 800/set. 18/8/35 and 18/9.5/32. 114/3 bolt. Literally going to toss the springs in the truck when lexus buys me out. Leaivng a lot on the table, so PM if need be. Labor = material cost.

Car has 13k...will match dealer price inc. aftermarket, if anyone is interested. No difference to me, just extending the offer

True. Although I've reached a point where one of the few positive things I can say about miami is that its not cold...

Pretty much, lexus is going to make me part out, then buy me out of the lease at the buyout pice (25ish), then cpo it and sell it for 28ish. Id basically take a one month payment hit.

Note: I can walk into the dealership with joe shmoe, and transfer title at buyout price (25ish). Car is yours...and would not need to be modded out.

A great deal for both parties. So if you or anyone are interested in doing that, id be happy to do so. Only thing is, I'm waiting for a job offer, once it comes in, car will need to be sold within a week of notice.
