I was not aware of the tapered wheel bolt issue was a thing I’ve been to a scrap yard and found a set that fitted the wheels. Thanks for the advice

I had a service on my Lexus a couple of months ago which was pretty uneventful but my mechanic told me I was going to need 4 fresh tyres soon. I decided that I would replace the 17 inch wheels with a set of 18 inch alloys at the same time. I started looking at f sport wheels but they were very expensive so I decided to see if anything else would fit and were cheaper than the f sport wheels. I came across the wheels which are fitted to the Model 3 and after doing some measuring and some basic maths I worked out/hoped they would fit. The internal diameter of the hole in the middle of the wheel were different so I ordered a set of spigots to make sure they fitted correctly. I fitted them yesterday and I think they look the part, they are a trifle wider than the f sport wheels. The offset is good at the front and rear and I’ve not needed to use any spacers to get it looking right. Personally I am rather pleased with them and think they look standardish

I’ve just swapped my 17’s for a set of 18’s on my Executive model, as far as comfort goes there is not a lot in it. I did notice the steering felt a tad sharper, almost as if the tyre was not rolling on the rim. Mine are from a Tesla model 3 so they are a tad wider than those fitted to the f-sport (and an awful lot cheaper).
