Old Navy Goat Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Can some members tell me if they have experienced problems with their Lexus (LS 430-04) chrome wheels? I have had two full sets put on my car and both rotted from the center out. My car is now a month past the four year warranty. I have put only 18,000 miles on the vehicle and it is garaged. Lexus wants me to pay them another $1000 for another set of chrome Lexus wheels. Obviously, they have a vendor product problem, because the chrome peels off the wheel. Is their a web venue that you can direct me to discussing this problem? I am certain, others, that take exceptional care of the Lexus, are experiencing the same problem with Lexus chrome wheels. I would be grateful for any help or insight you can provide. Thank you kindly. By the way, I have purchased four brand new Lexus in the past 7 years. Although, that does not seem to be of any value to Lexus. Go figure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TA in KC Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Seeing you live in Chicago, do you have a different set of wheels/tires for winter? Driving with chrome wheels in the snow, even for just one year, will destroy the finish from what I understand. Most people I know with chrome wheels change them out with another set during the winter months so the salt on the roads does not mess them up. I have thinking about putting a set of LS400 stock chrome wheels on my car. If I do, I will definitely keep my existing set to use in the wintertime.
