DimaDC Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Facing replacement of stock tires that my vehicle came with, which are Dunlop Grand Track AT 23 (275/60R-18) I also have other choices which are: -Nitto NT-404 Extreme Force SUV 275/60R-18 -Michelin Pilot LTX 275/60R-18 - Bridgestone Dueler H/T D684 275/60R-18 Any suggestions? I'm also considering an option of going "plus zero" and getting a wider tire with size 285/60R-18. Here are my other choices: Hankook Ventus ST RHO6 Falken Ziex S/TZ-04 Falken Ziex S/TZ-01 Goodyear Eagle GT II BF Goodrich g-Force T/A KDW NT Pirelli Scorpion Zero Yokohama Geolandar HTS Michelin Pilot LTX Yokohama AVS S/T Kumho ECSTA STX Sumitomo HTR Sport H/P All of these tires are only available in 285/60R/18 My question is wheather any of you went with an optional tires and would it work out with OEM wheels. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91L3xus Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Stay away from the Bridgestone Deulers. They were stock on my 2002 4Runner, and even when fresh (less than 5k on them) and 4WD, TCS and VSC, still managed to get in 2 accidents in the snow. They have a horribly shallow tread depth, and at 30k looked almost like racing semi-slicks. And I'm sure you know how the District handles clearing snow off the streets (it doesn't). I'd suggest Michilens, which are very grippy in the dry and wet, very good in the snow, and very good in the sand. Cross Terrain SUV.

greggebhardt Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 I am getting ready to buy new 18" tires for my 2004 LX470. Not many choices out there and will most likely go with the same Michilens that came with it. They have served me well and I have seen a few negative things about the Dunlops. I really do not want to buy wheels but will when I trade for the 2007 next November. I am hoping that the LX470 replacement, what ever it is, will be available as this is my 3rd LX470 and am looking for a change :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current Pilots have done a good job and I guess I will replace with the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norboo Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 They don't make the Michelin Pilot LTX anymore. Any reviews on Michelin Latitude Tour HP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! I will be on the same boat in a couple of months , I have been looking at the Michelin Pilot LTX2 or at the same time I might get the new LX570, if Lexus dealers are willing to deal below MSRP.
