is 500 bucks a piece!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the salesman told me today while I was waiting for a 10k mi check up.

Seriously? Or does that include the tire too? Hope your scratched up rim can be grounded smooth....my scratched rim is now my dedicated spare.

Actually, it should only cost you $365.97. Maybe the $500 a piece includes tires. But I doubt that, since a salesman will quote you the dealer asking price. The lower figure I quoted you is the wholesale cost (I believe).

chromaplast... how come you need new rims? And how many do you need? I have one that is practically new (a 1/4" nick - barely noticeable) that I would part for real cheap.

 

[chromaplast]

no kidding..
I am not getting new rims.. yet

you should ask the service or parts department. Usually Sales department will quote you higher so they can get comission

Got mine for $388 a piece. Had and boo boo.

I went to Hoffman Lexus in Hartford CT and I have a printed part listing for all the wheels.

The 16 they quoted as $335.
17 Graphite Polished $450
17 Normal Finish $375
17 Chrome $550

If you want a copy of this for leverage purposes, just ask, i'll mail one to you.
500 Seems pretty high.

$550 (actually $525) is for the chrome finish wheels.... thats what i have!!!!!!!!!!

Chromaplast.

If I were you, I would put out a "wanted post" on this forum page. There are a lot of people putting on 18" wheels that might want to sell their stock 17s. I picked up 4 - 17" rims and Potenza tires for a real good price. They were practically new (130 miles on them).
