One of the most popular modifications owners do is upgrade the wheel style with a set of Lexus GX wheel spacers. What makes every off-road enthusiast excited is that the third-generation GX J250 is a trail-ready rig out of the box. Then what can we make to give this SUV a distinctive flush look? That’s where this guide comes in.
This fitment guide contains all the information you need, such as the flush spacer sizes, bolt pattern (PCD), center bore (CB), offsets, and spacer selection for you. Here are the OEM sizes of this car:
- Flush wheel spacer size: front 30mm / rear 30mm or 35mm
- Bolt pattern (PCD): 6×139.7mm
- Center bore size: 95mm
- Lug nut spec: M14x1.5mm
In the market, the sizes of Lexus GX wheel spacers are available in 25mm, 30mm, 35mm, 40mm, 45mm, 50mm, and above. New wheel spacers for your Lexus GX550 Premium/ Luxury/ Overtrail can range in cost from $149.99 to $335.99+, depending on the spacer size and material you select. If you have installed aftermarket wheels, coilovers, wide-body aero kits, or a lift kit, you’ll need to be cautious when choosing a set of wheel spacers.
What is the Bolt Pattern on a 2024 Lexus GX Spacer?
The 2024-2025 Lexus GX features a 6×139.7mm bolt pattern and a 95mm center bore. In fact, all Lexus GX series have the same 6×139.7 bolt pattern. That includes 2002 J120 models up to 2024 J250 models. If you’re looking for wheel spacers for this vehicle, it is recommended to stick with vehicle-specific hub-centric ones. Because, specific hub-centric spacers can perfectly sit on the vehicle hub, meaning no extra stress, hence there is less chance of vibration.
You can put Lexus GX wheels on a 4Runner or a Tacoma especially if the bolt pattern, offset, and hub bore are the same. Sometimes, even if the PCD and CB are the same, the wheel offset can be a problem. In this case, the Lexus GX wheel spacers can fix the wrong offset. This is helpful to prevent the bigger rims and wider tires from hitting the fenders or any other suspension parts.
What is the Torque Spec of Lexus GX Wheel Spacers?
The REFERENCE torque spec of the Lexus GX wheel spacer would be 103.5Ft-lb (140NM) (always inquire with a tire expert before operating). Use the torque wrench to tighten each spacer lug nut to correct torque spec. This step ensures the lug nuts are evenly secured. Before driving, torque the lug nuts once again in the same star pattern. It is a good idea to retorque the lug nuts after about 50-100 miles of driving. This ensures the Lexus GX wheel spacers have not come loose.
Do Lexus GX Wheel Spacers Affect MPG?
No, the Lexus GX wheel spacers won’t affect fuel consumption significantly. They have been used for decades. As long as you install them properly, there will be no safety issues. Always choose genuine brand products. For example, BONOSS forged active cooling wheel spacers are made of aircraft-grade forged 6061-T6 or 7075-T6 billet aluminum that is strong enough to avoid being the weak link in your setup.
With the same price as most rim spacers, BONOSS forged active cooling Lexus GX spacers provide the active cooling advantages. These BONOSS forged active cooling spacers come with heat dissipation grooves. When rotating, those grooves allow the external cold air to flow continuously inside the wheel spacer. The air takes away the heat, so it achieves the purpose of actively dissipating heat for the braking system. This boosts the cooling efficiency, reduces brake thermal decay, and improves road safety.
Can I Tow a Trailer with Lexus GX Wheel Spacers?
Yes, you can tow a trailer with wheel spacers with no problem. It is recommended to use hub-centric spacers. When the hub-centric rings of the spacers properly fill the gap, the wheels can better support the vehicle’s weight. This adds strength to the wheel combination, reduces the chance of vibration, and provides a better driving experience. In order to make the hub-centric spacers fit more snugly with the vehicle hub, BONOSS forged active cooling Lexus GX spacers come with better multi-stage hub-centric rings.
BONOSS forged multi-stage hub-centric rings are machined to be multi-layers, and the bevels fit for the corresponding hub flange, which eliminates any possible gaps. The 0.02mm machining precision guaranteed a high-quality surface. The higher the precision of the contact face, the better the Lexus GX wheel spacers will fit. These BONOSS forged active cooling wheel spacers will effectively reduce the chance of vibration and keep your wheels safe all the way along.
