I bought a used 2008 Rx 350 in 2009. It came with the same Michelin tires you have, and I've stayed with that brand/model for all replacement tires. They last around 30 - 35K miles. I'm an average driver, and I've been very happy with their performance. I believe Consumer Reports has consistently rated Michelin as one of the best tires for most drivers in most situations. I would be reluctant to try a different brand.

What type of oil (regular or synthetic)is required for a 2008 Rx 350? I bought mine used, and received a 2007 owner's manual by mistake. That manual makes no mention of synthetic oil, but I've seen comments on this site indicating synthetic oil was required by Lexus starting in 2008.
