Fresh Set Of Wheels

[jeffreyt]

for some months now I have been looking for a another set of wheels to replace the 'dinner plate ' wheels

currently on the car ( how could anyone at Toyota/Lexus sanction those ridiculous wheels on such a lovely looking car ?) and fit standard tyres ie not run flats.

Well this weekend I have just purchased a set of 18 inch wheels from an early GS300,they are in good condtion and cost the very reasonable sum of £116 off eBay.Tried one on this afternoon and they fit perfectly and really look the business.

Will get my son to refurb them ( thats his business ),fit 2 new tyres and I will have a nice new set wheels

without breaking the bank.

I'm posting this in case it helps anyone else wanting to replace their 'dinner plates ' at a reasonable cost

and is not sure which Lexus wheels will fit the SC430.

Will post some pics up when they are refurbed and on.

PS I am not fitting the tyre pressure sensors to the new wheels and will disable the warning light/audio connection ( how to disable the this is covered elsewhere in the SC430 forum).

Hello are you selling the dinner plate wheels? Definitely interested in a set, let me know thanks

Hi don't sell the dinner plates unless you have to as one day when you sell the car you will need the original ones to keep it complete .
