Car is going into Lexus Grimsby on Tuesday to have all four wheels replaced again as they have gone milky in places. Quite rubbish.

I had Lexus Cambridge put a new set on when I bought it in August last year and now they need doing again.

I am a little concerned that the car will be 3 years old in August and after that Lexus wont entertain them being changed again if they deteriorate. Any Ideas?

Had my 200 Sport wheels reburbished a couple pf months ago by a very reputable company who told me they are doing Japanese wheels all the time. They say there just isn't enough paint and lacquer on the originals - not just Lexus but many Japanese makes. The wheels look great now and I'm hoping they are going to stay that way.

Hey there, I just replaced my GPX with an IS200 Sport too!

FTO is a great car but really enjoying being back as a Lexus owner.

Thanks guys - good to be on board. I know how valuable these forums can be. I suppose I will just have to learn to use my right foot a little more delicately!

:D After five years in the Mitsubishi camp I've deserted to become a Lexus owner. They were a great bunch of guys (and gals) in the owner's club who gave me endless help and advice with the pair of GPX FTOs I owned. Finally the wife told me to grow up and get something more sensible.

I did - an IS 200 Sport.

Lovely car and I'm well pleased - not even missing my FTO too much. But I seem to be getting about 22 mpg. Could this be right? Maybe I'm driving too much like my FTOs which need a lot of revs. - 4000 to get the MIVEC to kick in. The car is still very standard, no mods to speak of. Any views appreciated

Other than that I'm enjoying being a Lexus owner.
