lexusk8 Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I may be due for tire replacement sometime this year, as I have put in over 40K miles on the Toyos (nice to get my money's worth) :D ← Doug, I would suggest you give serious consideration to the Goodyear Triple Treads when the time comes to replace the Toyo's.......they are available in an H speed rating for our size (only one size down from V). Have a look at the tirerack's reviews as they are fantastic & it's what I will be switching too when the time comes. They are simply the B) http://www.goodyearassurance.com/ ← Actually, I've already put in new tires on the ES. They're a set of Bridgestone Turanza LS-H. I've only logged in 1,500 miles on them for about a month, but boy, do they sound quiet and comfortable! :whistles: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WtaggiN Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I have a 1994 Es300 with 170,xxx on it. Engine is running strong. Only things I have ever replaced (besides tires, 60k, 90k, oil, etc...the obvious) are the transmission and front and rear struts. She still rides smoother than ever and looks amazing...I will have to take pictures later. Too bad she is still completely stock though :( Unless you want to count the red leds behind the gauges.

I am pretty new to the lexus category, I used to have a 94' 3000gt but college is coming around and I know lexus is WAY less up-keep than a 3kgt. If you can, try to get Cooper tires. It is a private brand made by someone (i forgot). I used to work at discount tire and those tires were a good seller to people who knew about them. They last a long time...not sure how they would be on a lexus, but I know I loved them on my car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took them out of my 3kgt, and put the regular bulbs back into that. I have 2 white ones on the Engine Temp Gauge and Gas Gauge, I am waiting to get 2 more bulbs from my friend...looks good a night. I need to find out where I can get some new needles for a decent price though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supercat Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 I bought my 97 ES with 68,000 on the ticker and two years later have 88k. She runs, sounds and looks just like she did when I got her - and I still get compliments from the neighbors whenever they see me washing her in my driveway.

steviej Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 I have had my 02 for 35 months now and have put 52,500 miles on it. That averages to 1500 miles per month.

Lexusfreak Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 I've owned my 01 ES for 20 months now......the car had 72,000 km's (44,500 miles) & now has 100,000 kms (62,000 miles). I average about 1,450 kms (just under 900 miles) a month. That will change in the near future large as my company is relocating soon. So I expect I will at least double or more that distance monthly.

SnesleyWipes Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 I probably have the lowest mileage for the date of my car. 1991 with 128,763 miles.Also have about 62,000 miles on the 2002 4Runner, +-20,000 miles a year. ← Sorry but my '92 just hit 89,500 today.

LexKid630 Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 My wife has an 05 ES330. She got it last March. Today there are 19,731 miles on it. That averages 3946 miles a month, but that's just an average. She usually settles at around 43,000 miles a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexusk8 Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 I got my '01 ES back in April 2003 at 63,890 miles. Now in Jan. 2006, this daily driver is sitting at 119,470 miles. That calculates out to roughly 1,685 miles driven per month, quite more than the national average. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
