LEX-SV Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I have Toyo T1R's on my Lexus IS350 that will be nearly worn out by end of year probably. Any recommendations for summer tires other than Hankook Ventus V12's?... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pj8708 Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Hi St. This is always a popular topic. In addition to your posting, I would suggest doing a search of the data base. You'll find quite a number of opinions. Those in the Club who drive ESs' have a leaning towards the Michlen Primacy. It is very quiet, smooth as glass, excellent wear, and a reasonable price. A look at Tire Rack can give you some good info. plus more research on other brands. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEX-SV Posted May 7, 2014 Author Share Posted May 7, 2014 Yes, thanks. I looked earlier on Tire Rack and noticed the Toyo T1R's are back on the market (I originally thought they were being discontinued), anybody no about that maybe?. The T1R is Z-rated summer tire, so I'm looking for something competitive with that, the Hankook Ventus V12's are comparable for example.

LEX-SV Posted September 11, 2014 Author Share Posted September 11, 2014 I'll get the Hankooks by Ocotober, before rains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEX-SV Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 I'll get the Hankooks by Ocotober, before rains. Placed order to new Hankook Ventus 19's last weekend, sb here in a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEX-SV Posted November 6, 2014 Author Share Posted November 6, 2014 Tires installed today, but not much chance to drive it. Decided to change my wheels at same time to Vossen CV3 19's in matte graphite. This weekend I'll take it out and put some easy miles on it to break in the new Hankook tires.
