Tires 07 Es350

[SW03ES]

Make sure they are the PRIMACY MXV4, and not the MXV4 S8 or the MXV4 Plus

[footdoc]

Installed the MXM4 on my 08 es. SMOOTH and positive. you can;t go wrong.

Tires were put on last week (Saturday) the ride seems a little rough to me, maybe I was just use to the old tires. They had to redo the alignment, I found that it was drifting a little. They fixed that and all is well, I just have to get use to them. Maybe another week or so. Michelin Primacy MXV4 93V.

tires are fine

for smoother ride, MAKE sure the tire pressure is not too high

factory recommends 30psi all around

most places will put it more by default...pressure makes a ton of difference in the ride

let us know

[SW03ES]

Yeah check the tire pressures, I bet they are too high...I bet when you check them they'll be like 40 plus...

[LexyLuv49]

Tires are 30/31 psi all around and on the tires itself they say max is 51 psi.

and ride is still too rough/firm, or ok now?

[SW03ES]

The max is simply the maximum pressure the tires can handle, has no bearing on how you should inflate them.

At 30PSI, they should ride great...

[LexyLuv49]

IDK, it still feels rough to me and my daughter noticed it too, hubby drove it for 3 days and he loves it. It could be cause they're new, we'll see. THX Everyone.

I know its to late now but I think I should've bought the 94V, I read that somewhere. Also, I read that increasing to 36PSI may help. Whatcha think on the PSI?

we have been through this

the higher the pressure the rougher the ride, but the better the handling (though a bit more dangerous in slippery conditions)

you were complaining about a rough ride, so it was suggested that you go with the Lexus recommendation of 30psi all around

that will give you the ride designed for that car, smooth and quiet

if the ride is still rough after putting the proper 30psi all around, the problem is not the tire pressure

don't know where you read to increase pressure for smooth ride, but it is wrong!

Wise and accurate advice. I always run 32 psi in my car and every time it's been in for service it comes back with at least 36 psi in the tires. I always forget to ask the Svc Dept why they do it and tell 'em not to do it. Maybe one of these times I'll remember.

LexyLuv is it possible the dealer upped the air pressure when your car was in the shop?

[SW03ES]

You say you should have bought the "94V", what did you buy?

[LexyLuv49]

I purchased 93V. No, they didn't up the pressure it's still 30/31. I'll just deal with it, other things in life are more important than my dang tires. Thx so much for all the replies. TTYL

[SW03ES]

Thats just a load rating, would make no difference...

Just purchased Michelin Primacy MXM4's....just put on yesterday. I replaced Yok's that were crap. I can't believe the difference in the ride. Absolutely, Primacy! I couldn't find them at a local tire dealer so I purchased them online at Discount Tire Direct. Good Luck!
