By the way, I noticed that you took the time to white out your license plate however you forgot one...oops..

At any rate,

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for posting the pics. I've been debating about what to put on my 99 2WD RX. It came with 2005 (I think) factory Lexus 18" 5-spoke wheels in chrome. I like them, but I was looking at something to balance out the vehicle a little better, like 19" or 20" wheels. Plus, the factory width (which I think is 7" rim with a 225 width) looks pretty skinny on these vehicles. I've been checking out other people's rides and there are nice looking 20" rims, and some that look like a clown's car.

Yours is one of the first I've seen that has a nice balanced look with 18"s. I think it's the wider 255 width and 50 wall tire height that does it. Thanks for listing the tire size. Do you have any rubbing or fitment issues at all with the wider width? Also, does anyone know if there is any extra flexiblity with the 2WD model regarding wheels/tire clearance than the AWD?

Here are a couple pics of mix-match wheels/tires on the RX models... I think the 20"s on the late model body style looks the best, but 18"s on a 1999 with the right tire should look pretty good... like yours.

Thanks again..
