  1. No problem and it is only 1.5% difference which means at 60mph you will really be going about 60.8 miles per hour. They should even weigh about the same and even though your spare is a little bit smaller if you air your spare up to about 36 lbs it should be OK to use until you can drive some where and get your 285 repaired.
  2. I would confirm that the dealer won't give you any warranty crap over the larger tire. Look at the Brigstone Alanza's more to the LX liking and they should be ok for light off roading that you would do in a 2006 LX470 :chairshot:
  3. How many LX's did you drive before you bought this one? Did you drive this one before you bought it? It's not a sports car, my SC430 tracks tighter then my LX470 but my LX470 is a great driving vehicle. I've driven many LX/LC's and owned a 99 LC before. They all seem to drive about the same, maybe you are very sensitive and now you are over sensitive to this vehicle. Makes me think that yours is normal since the one you drove that the engineer drove up from Dallas drove the same. Now to make it better, make sure you run the front tires at 28-29lbs that might help. Good luck.
  4. That depends on if you want to spend the money to fix them :0
  5. Leather is sealed as you state, so if the only place that conditioner will have any affect is stich holes and edges then you can't condition the leather (other then that area). The Lexus leather is sealed. All you can do is keep it clean and protect it with a UV protector. Any leather conditioner will just act like smearing oil on tile. I guess the conditioner might make it smell better? I use a mild cleaner like woolite with water and a UA protectant like you would use on a combination vinyl leather protector.
  6. 400K miles with normal service.
  7. Just convert it to a normal LC suspension with some good bilsteins. Contact Slee of road for the help you might need.
  8. Lexus LX470 has sealed leather. You can clean it but you can't condition it. Like trying to condition wood that has a plastic coating over it. Best cleaner is some diluted woolite and water. Just clean as needed.
