#13 of 35 Re: Forced to buy run flats [] by heatmiser Jan 02, 2007 (4:49 am)
Replying to: unknown (Dec 30, 2006 5:02 pm) I can't find the exact thread right now, but there's a discussion on the Lexus Owners' Club site [http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index.php?showforum=3] about a spare conversion kit. I understand the Lexus dealership version may be around $900, but you can get another make (Acura, maybe) that works for a lot less. I've not done this yet, however, so I'd look into it first. Good luck. Replies to this message: shyork (Jun 14, 2007 12:16 pm) angelo5 (Aug 17, 2007 11:55 am) angelo5 (Aug 17, 2007 12:00 pm) eliotj (Oct 30, 2008 11:39 am)

Couldn't stop laughing from that one. Just replaced mine with Continentals. And thanks for the tip about the Conticomfort Kit. I'd buy a spacesaver tire but not for $500.00

Replying to: heatmiser (Jan 02, 2007 4:49 am) I replaced my run flats about a year ago and love the new ride - what I was expecting when I bought the car. Since I do a lot of highway driving, I didn't want to get stuck in the boonies waiting for a flat bed truck. I did a lot of research on options and decided to get the mini spare.   My dealer quoted me $1100 for the kit. Instead I just bought the steel wheel for mini spare from the dealer ($130)Then I purchased the actual tire from a local tire store ($220 installed - pricey but I checked 5 places and they all were within a couple of bucks). The sppare fits nicely in the wheel well and the top still goes down. Replies to this message: angelo5 (Aug 17, 2007 11:55 am) angelo5 (Aug 17, 2007 12:00 pm) eliotj (Oct 30, 2008 11:39 am)

#19 of 35 Keeping the run flat, changing the type? by rlejr66 Sep 06, 2007 (1:34 pm)
Has anyone replaced the Bridgestone summer run-flats with the Dunlop all-season run-flats? If so, can you tell any difference in the ride?

Replying to: heatmiser (Dec 22, 2006 5:15 am) Lots of people indicate great satisfaction and greatly improved ride with Goodyear F1/D3 as well as Michelin Pilot A/S Plus. I am in the process of replacing my Dunlop run flat tires and installing Michelin's from either Costco or Discount Tire with their lifetime balance and rotation.

Replying to: bbatts (Sep 30, 2008 6:34 am) I got the Michelins about a year ago and love them. I also got slightly wider tires on the back, and it really helps hug the road. Enjoy. Replies to this message: duval1 (Apr 10, 2009 5:42 am)
