heatherb328 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I have a 2004 IS300 that I just purchased and I need to replace the tires. I've done some research, but I want some first hand advise from people w/the same car. I need a GOOD all-season tire (17" rims) that will get me through the spring, summer, and fall in New England. Any suggestions? Anything I should avoid? Any advise would be helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The all season tires were Dunlop Graspic 215/45R17 low profile tires. They worked pretty well in the snow. As far as how well they hold up, I couldn't tell you because I have only been through one winter with them. Hope that helps a little.

Let me know & I will be better able to suggest specific tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexusfreak Posted June 18, 2005 Share Posted June 18, 2005 The tire size is 215/45/17. ← Based on what your looking for in a tire, I suggest these as the very best choices: - Avon Tech M550 A/S http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?ti...romCompare1=yes - Yokohama Avid H4S http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?ti...romCompare1=yes - Falken Ziex ZE-512 http://www.falkentire.com/tires_512.htm - Toyo Proxes 4 http://www.toyo.com/tires/tire_lines/sport...r/proxes_4.html - Pirelli PZero Nero http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?ti...romCompare1=yes All are very good choices, the Avon & Falken are your best overall value & the Pirelli are the most expensive. I hope this helps & good luck! B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
