Bought the PowerProof as soon as they were released. Since they were replaced by the Nokian ZLine i thought i'd give them a shot. Excellent handling, breaking in the wet. All 4 Tires had 2mm left after 25,000km. Overall an excellent tire, especially in the rain, it's like you're driving in the dry weather.

Fitment comes from each tire's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

What Lexus GS 250 Luxury drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
These tires represent a considerable improvement upon the factory fitted Bridgestone turanza's.
Comfort, grip and confidence is so assured with the vreds they transform the entire driving experience and imho show the vehicle off to its optimal performance and enjoyment.

Fantastic tire and beats the Michelin and Pirelli p zeros that were on my Lexus gs250. Comfort and ride are awesome. Cheaper if you look around too!
These are really average tires considering they are bespoke Lexus tires.
They lack any true feeling of confidence or comfort and while they are a touring rather than sporty tire, they fail to inspire in any department other than wear.
In my opinion they are not doing the car justice and as soon as the weather turns cold they frankly become very unpredictable, almost dangerous....hence the decision to invest in a set of winter boots

Just put these back on the car for their second season and while I can't comment on their ability to cope with snow yet, they are simply beautiful tires. So assured and so comfortable I just know I shall be able to cope with any conditions thrown at them with absolute confidence.
Bought these to replace a set of Yokohama winter tires which were the subject of a "Lexus" deal and there is no comparison - the Michelins win hands down.
