I found a set of (4) for sale from a local guy for $400 on FB Market place. Had my painter clean them up and spray them black for $400. Ordered the correct lug nuts for these wheels (your factory LC200's will not work) on Ebay for $50 (OEM open packaged price, that actually wasn't opened) and some new OEM center caps for like $22 each. The same guy that sold me with rims actually had a set of 285/70R17 BGG's that had never been mounted. Customer at his shop decided to go with a different size. They cost me $600. All together I was at about $1,800 for pretty much a new set up mounted and balanced with new TPMS. It's my winter package. I just need to have the front coils springs raised up and re-aligned to loose some rake and I'll be fine. The truck drives great and I saved about 9lbs. on each corner switching form my 20's. Just know that they may need spacers to give you a more aggressive stance if that is what you are looking for.
Looks sharp. I tried to get a set but the guy on eBay wouldn’t budge on price. Went with some Icon’s. The main issue with finding 17’s is the offset. Factory is 50mm. I went with a 34 10.50 17 BFG All terrain on mine and love it.
Nitto Ridge Grapplers 285/75/17, no spacers, minor rubbing. Rubbing was eliminated by pushing the fender liner forward.

Is that vinyl or paint on your rear and front chrome? Looks awesome.
Great choice on wheel color as well. Great looking rig.
Thanks! Most of the chrome is plastidiped but I painted the window and fog light trim.

great looking LX, what does Lexus call that color? I 've seen in on Lexus and Sequoia's and really like it.
Thanks, Lexus calls it Twilight Grey Metallic, not to be confused with Mercury Metallic which is a darker grey...
We recently put 285/75/17’s on our 2008 with Spidertrax 1.25” spacers. I need to get rid of the tab for the front mud flap and do some inner liner massaging with a heat gun. Right now I just have minimal rubbing.
