update: sun shade sold mats and cargo net still available. Thx.

I’ve since traded my LX, but am selling the following items left over from the sale: 1.) OEM Black carpet floor mats. Fits 2013 to 2020. Used only a few times until I received my rubber mats. $160 + tax on parts.lexus.com. Will sell for $100 + ups ground shipping cost. 2.) OEM cargo net...

Yes. I traded my 14 in on a 16. Stock Dunlop’s on the 14 went at 24k-25k IIRC. Those were 20 inch. I replaced them with another option. Surprised to see slightly more life out of the 21 inch Dunlop’s, but I’m locked into replacing with more Dunlop’s unless I want to change to a new wheel size or...

Thanks. That’s good info. I was expecting closer to 20k, but in the end I may be closer to 30k before I swap tires. That’s surprising on a vehicle this heavy on that type of tire.

I’m honestly surprised it took that long for someone to post this comment. Haha.

Subject explains it all. I'm at about 24k on my LX, mainly easy interstate miles, and looks like I have a few thousand miles left on the original set. Not looking to debate pros or cons (I know... mainly cons). Just looking to get a feel for how long the treadlife last for everyone. Thx in advance.

Thanks for the feedback. You read my mind with what you said. I just wanted some additional opinion in the event I was truly incorrect. Not a bad call on keeping the deepest tread up front for a time to accelerate evening out the 4 wheels... Thx.

Thanks for the feedback. Just curious, was your Lexus also AWD? Also, do you know the difference in the tread depth in that situation? I think there’s more leeway generally speaking if not AWD. Thx again for the feedback.

Hi All. I own a 16 LX570, with the dreaded 21 inch Dunlop’s. I’ve got 22k miles and will need tires in a few thousand miles. When trading in my previous LX, I assumed I’d have a similar range of tire options in the 21s. I obviously was wrong. :-/ Long story short, I fell ass backward into 3...

I was thinking of the paint thickness issue as well. When I traded in my 14 LX on this 16 LX, the first thing both Lexus dealers did was measure paint thickness when evaluating my trade....

That’s an excellent point. There is good value on that. I spoke with the man’s insurance company and they agreed to pay all repair costs. I brought up the diminished value topic and said I am going to get my council’s thoughts as well and move forward. They appeared understanding and sent me...

Thanks for the feedback everyone. Yes, I’d hope any reasonable person would be able to see through a Carfax accident report and look at the details. My concern is that if I trade back in at a Lexus dealer for a newer model year, or even a 300 one day, it will be used against me by the dealer...

Quick details below: -Unfortunate accident -70+ year old distracted driver ran his Vette Stingray into my ‘16 LX with 15k Miles. -Other driver admitted fault, and tried to write me a check on the spot for the damage (amongst acting strange overall)... so I call the cops for a police report. I...

That was my thinking too. I’m willing to bet the tech hadn’t seen anything other than the regular paper filter before and didn’t know what to do with it....

Now that we’ve covered where they can be bought :)... can anyone confirm whether or not the fit is different on the 16+ vs the 13-15? I’m guessing error / inexperience by the tech, but I’m not certain at this point...
