Its the Lexus lights, take them off and it will be fine






What nick are the tyres in, could have an egg in one of them, I think the plastic rings you speak of are spacers, mine had them

But i'd go for the ballencing. one of the weights might have dropped off. It's happened to me b4. I just went back, and they reballenced my wheels.
