Tire Replacement For Gs430

[IslandStyle]

Hi all,

I've got to replace my Turanza LS-Vs, which I put a healthy 65k on over 5.5 yrs. I've read decent reviews on the Hankooks. I wanted V12s, but they don't come in my size 225/55/16. Does anyone have any experience with V4s?

Any other tires you'd recommend? I've read mixed reviews of Toyo TR1s....sticky, but wear quickly and suck in the winter. Any other ones to consider? I live in the desert, so dry mostly with occasional monsoon rain.

Thanks in advance.

We had the LS-V's on our ES300 and really liked them, but then we switched to Kumho and found them to be even better. We've gone through 2 sets of KH16's and now have the Ecsta LX Platinum and love them. The KH16's were only good for about 40k miles, but the Ectsa's are rated a lot better for tread wear so I have high hopes for them.
