#27 of 32 REPLACEMENT TIRES - Alenza by shooter4 Jan 19, 2009 (7:31 pm)
Replying to: cwayne (Jan 19, 2009 10:09 am) Funny you bring this up....I am probably 10-15K miles from needing new but these Goodyears are crap...one pulls hard when on the front. What size Alenzas did you get...I am thinking one wider and taller...did you talk to the dealer about over-sizing? Would like to improve cornering and stability on this car....Thx for the tip!

#28 of 32 TO SHOOTER4 by cwayne Jan 20, 2009 (6:00 am)
I purchased tires from bridgestone/firestone dealer. 235/18/55, the same as tire that came on new RX. I mayby could have had another 2-3 thousand miles on goodyear but new bridgestone are 65M tires and I do not plan on keeping RX that long. I payed $825.00 out the door and could have saved a few $ if I had purchased from tirerack and had local installer. The tire is quieter and corners much better.

Replying to: shooter4 (Jan 19, 2009 7:31 pm) Shooter, just wanted to let you know that I saw an RX330 a few years ago that had 255/55/18 tires on it and I thought it looked pretty good. Not too drastic, but definitely better looking than the 235/55's. I may check out this size tire soon as I have almost 35,000 miles on my '07 RX350 and probably will need to change them out in another 3,000 to 5,000 miles. Good Luck!
#30 of 32 Don't buy Yokohamas by hawk314a Mar 24, 2009 (5:39 am)
I have a 2001 RX300 with over 100k miles and just bought 4 new Yokohamas. I had I think the original Bridgestones (30k) on there and well over the useful life. I read on a different forum that people were recommending the Yokohamas, Bridgestones and Michelins. When I went to NTB they recommended the Yokohamas...supposedly softer tire, well I don't like them, they are noisy and not as soft and about to return them. My car also feels like it has a drag to it and no get up and go like the Bridgestones. I'm taking the Yokos back and going with new Bridgestones, the ride is smoother and quieter.
#31 of 32 toyo tires by joewvu Jun 05, 2009 (2:13 pm)
hi all, I'm getting ready to replace my p235/55r18 'v' rated tires on my rx350 and saw these tires as a viable replacement to the original michelins that got me 38,000 miles. Has anybody tried the toyo's (versado)? They seem to be after the lexus,bmw,etc market and on paper they look pretty good. Any insight greatly appreciated as I'm getting ready to buy very soon. thx Replies to this message: jsomeillan (Aug 09, 2009 10:26 am)

Replying to: joewvu (Jun 05, 2009 2:13 pm) JUst got some Bridgestone Alenza tires with 65k mile warranty and road side for $700+ in CA. It inc. rotation and flat repairs. at a Firestone/bridgestone tire dealer. would not buy Michelins again, they do not give any mile warranty and only lasted 27k on the '07 RX.
