Bought new is250 gen.III with these stock Tires Dunlop sp sport maxx 050 (not plus). Compare to old model so sport maxx it's better but so much.
It goes straight as you want brakes good but it's rather stiff and uncomfortable (stiffy and noisy).
Right now it's 65000km on a clock and front Tires are worn in internal sides because of front suspension geometry.
When they are totally worn I would buy Goodyear's eagle 5 or Michelin Pilot 4.

Managed to get a good deal on them and that was the best part. Review comments are based on my expectations for a UHP tire. Lateral grip and braking performance fell short of my expectations, hence this would not be a tire to recommend for any Track activity. It is resistant to aquaplaning though and was always confident driving through standing water. Steering response was good, it made the car feel more nimble. At high speed in a straight line (155) it was acceptably stable. NVH levels were low, good. I changed out before reaching the wear indicators.

I live in an area that gets a lot of rain and I was a little apprehensive about moving from a directional tire to an asymmetric, these tires have eased my fears, I have had none of the traction issues in the wet as described by others, they are quieter then my directional tires and the wear seems excellent so far, I would absolutely buy these again based on my experience so far

Actually i m using sp sport maxx 050 instead of 050 plus. It was an OE tire for my 2016 lexus rx350 f sport. Well, i comment this tire is just above average after using for more than 5000km. It works fine when dry but really slippery when wet, not to mention how it performs when aquaplaning. Cant tell any on wear but i think it can last quite long for an average driver like me. All in all, if u sure urself is a mild driver then take it, otherwise go for some others.
Would not use again and probably go for goodyear or continental.
