Hmmm. I must be missing the rings.

I sure don't get the asking price, 'tho. Isn't that like 2300 US dollars?

That was sort of my guess...guess I don't keep up with wheels enough to be able to tell a Lexus wheel when I see one. Hell, it's all in the family, anyhow.

Correct close $2300. Cars are expensive in Costa Rica. 50% of that are taxes.

Please correct my post : rims

Ummm, my car is rides on those very rims for the winter season... I don't see what's wrong with them They fit perfectly, however, they are heavier than stock so fuel economy DOES suffer.

I ΄m pretty sure those rims came with the car since the 97 and they were really beaten up at the end of the past year and if you have the chance to come to Costa Rica and see some of our secondary roads you will quickly understand why they fell apart. LOL

Gen 5΄s are even harder to see and to get spare parts down here is a real pain in the neck for the gen 4
