Lexus GS Tires

I have these tires on my rear-wheel-drive Lexus GS. I'm pleased with the traction in winter conditions. I previously had Yokohama winter tires and didn't notice much difference. The only downside is increased road noise. I recommend these tires and would definitely buy them again.

Complete set installed in April 2024. For now, they feel much quieter and more comfortable than the dunlop sp050. We see how it behaves over time.

Taken set in the fall of 2022. It behaves very well. Comfortable and silent up to highway speeds.

It’s a good tire just not for me it has a short life only got about 25k out of them was told. 45k Uniroyal makes a better tire and has 65k warranty also tire had a lot of road noise and California freeways eat this soft rubber up quick

These are halfway decent at high speed, sadly better than my 15 year old Goodyear Eagles which understeer horribly on slick roads with spirited driving

Extremely comfortable Tire for my Lexus, builds up speed quickly and seems to be wearing good. its not a tire if you're looking to go track days but performance and soaks up the roads irregularities well and does not disappoint when you put your foot down.

I switch from Dunlop Sport Max 050 which come from my Lexus GS 200t when I brought my car one year ago. The Dunlop one after 10,000km become slippy when wet and noisy, just right after the switching, thr passengers also noticed the breaking distance is much less, at least 2m shorter than Dunlop, also the handling and grip are excellent, the car now stick to the road which provide confidence and I can drive faster with low noise. I like this tire very much.

I put over 20k miles on these tires and this is what I experience.
Pros:
1. These tires grip very well with wet or dry weather.
2. They handle very well in the corners and these tires are very responsive.
3. These tires wear very slow. I put over 20k miles on these bad boys and they look almost new!
Cons:
1. These tires make a lot of noise. I just don't understand it because these tires wear evenly. I cannot stand the noise.
2. The tire is heavy. You can tell when driving that these tires are more heavy than the average tire.
3. Don't hit a pot hole!

Bought these in May, was recommended as a good all season tire. Not very good in rainy conditions, and absolutely TERRIBLE in winter conditions. My old, bald tires were better than these in winter conditions. Very disappointed, they should not have these on the shelves in any city with snow.
