  1. >>Generally the RE040 and RE92 are the more popular tires we see on the IS Yes, I saw an IS300 parked on the street and took a look at the tire, and it was the RE92. which is pretty expensive >>Even with touring tire and their better all weather capability, you may want to consider getting four snow tires for the winter. >>I would strongly consider getting another set of rims off ebay, (they don't have to be expensive ones.) and then get a set of real snow tires for the the winter, and then switch back to performance tires during the summer months Ok, I know this is going to come as a shock to you guys, and maybe even bordering on heresy...but I dont drive the car much! Its a 2002 IS300, and it has 25,000 miles on it. But I do like the car, its just that I travel for work, so I am out of town mon-fri, and I went through a period of over a year where I had to drive to travel so I had a rental car (company pays for it) 7 days a week. Thats why I still have the original tires on it. But Im thinking they are probably reaching the end of their life, and since I need tires, I would get all season tires, which is what is needed, since my tires do not work on any snow at all. Obviously I don't race, etc...I stay around 65 on the highway (speed limit is 55 here). So knowing this, whats a good tire for me? Thanks
  2. Hi everyone, just joined the forum! Ok, I have a 2002 IS300. The tires are: 215/45-17, but the problem is they have sport racing tires from California. Bridgestone Potenza RE040 - good tires by the way, I like them I live in NYC, so that means the tires are worthless in the snow. What tires should I replace these with? Considering I will be driving them all year round, in all 4 seasons...well maybe not in a blizzard, but will be if there is some snow on the ground. Also what are your experiences with those tires...good/bad points. I just found out that discount tire direct is having an internet sale (save $100 on 4) but I have heard rumors that they also jacked up the price before the sale. I also noticed that they do not have Bridgestone tires there. Thanks -Tony
