Didn’t see anything on the forum specific to floor (vs. cargo) mats from these brands, so adding FYI. Both brands not yet ready for the 2024 LC in terms of laser fitment. Waiting for WeatherTech to roll out their HP mats in particular; per call with WeatherTech it doesn’t sound like they will be available until next calendar year. Like other aftermarket vendors, clearly playing catch up. Toyota (Lexus too for GX) must not make specs available, surprising given all the drive/other hands-on reviews going way back (I assume they had those reviewers sign an NDA and agree not to take measurements!).
 
1958 didn’t come with any, but i scooped a set of the yota brand all weather and they’re plenty good until the premium stuff hits

There is a thread for aftermarket parts that has a link on Amazon that I purchased floor mat and rear cargo mat set for like $200.00 I have not received them yet but hopefully they fit perfectly? I will post pictures when they arrive
 
I just sold a BMW with the Weathertech mats. The carpet looked as good as the day we bought it. The Weathertech mats are a little rigid and I liked them for in town driving. I have Husky liners in my F250. They are a softer rubber feel. They are more comfortable on my heels on long highway drives.
Both are good products, but if I had to choose, I would choose Weathertech.
Just my opinion.
 
First edition came with all but cargo mat so I ordered from my dealer perfect match even had two slots for tie downs a couple day wait . Very happy.
 
Both WeatherTech and Husky are available now, @alcruiser222 just posted photos of the WeatherTechs in another post. Has anyone received the Husky version yet?
 
I've had both in numerous vehicles, both protect well but the Husky are a bit more flexible and tend to 'conform' better to the vehicle in my opinion. The Weathertech are so rigid that sometimes they get a 'wave' in them and don't fit perfectly. I'd let pricing be your guide, all things being equal the Husky would be my first choice.
 
I’ve used both and I prefer Weathertech. The Husky mats are thicker, but to a point where the utility of the increased thickness is questionable and they are harder to work with.

Also the Husky mats have those little spikes on the bottom that keep them from moving around on the carpet. They are really sharp and, again, make the product hard to work with beyond the utility. The Weathertech mats don’t slide around either.

Finally - and I concede this issue could be unique to a vehicle design - the second row part for my Tahoe was not measured well for the contour of the interior and left large gaps where there should not have been any. See below where there was enough space under the hump to slide a tin of Altoids, which was the worst gap but not the only one. This wasn’t an issue that resolved when the product relaxed, it just wasn’t well measured.

Just not at parity with the quality standard for that product category in my experience.

They are same as the GX and LandCruiser. They are little stiff due to weather being so cold. I guess when the weather warms up the rear will flatten

The spikes you mentioned are still there but they are not sharp as before and rounded off.
