I'm interested, in the Queens area

i think they took me for a ride...i was willing to get four regular tires. Im shocked that the spare is not fullsize, driving a GS with a flat is horrific

Yeah, I had a blow out a year ago on the highway in the middle of nowhere. Ended up changing the tire and driving 100 miles or so back home, It was sad to see the GS with a little donut tire sitting on the driveway... :(

:D i felt the same way. when i had the spare on

the dealer informed me that no other tire can fit on the GS 300 AWD but runflats <_<

Wow... You need to find a new dealer because the one who told you that either doesn't know what he's talking about, or is blatantly lying to you!

Many others on this forum have ditched the runflats for other tires. Personally, I would have done to same to get better grip and a quieter ride (my car has a spare too - not all GSs do). However, when faced with $150 for two used runflats vs. at least three to four times that much for four new tires, I decided to keep the runflats until all 4 needed replacing...

About a month back I bought two used Dunlop runflats online (from http://www.bestusedtires.com). I had two newer tires (were replaced under warranty a year ago) which now have about 8/32s life (the tread depth is 10/32s on a new tire) and wanted to get two used ones to match (so I would have 4 tires with 8/32s on them).

I paid $149.90 including shipping. I had them shipped to a local Tire Rack installer who installed the tires for $60. They were able to move my pressure monitors from the old tires to the new ones. Total cost was about $215 (incl taxes).

I was happy with the used tire place - I spoke with the guy on the phone before buying and he seemed to know what he was talking about (as best as I could tell). The tires shipped pretty quickly and took about a week to arrive. I ask the installer to check the tires to make sure they're fine (buying used tires online seemed like a questionable thing to do, but I figured I'd give it a shot), and he said there were no issues. So, I got the product as promised, and would definately buy again.

thank you, i needed that

Was looking at Edmunds to get an idea of what they think my GS is worth (2006, AWD, 42K miles, Navi, NO ML, NO parking sensors, just about everything else). In clean condition the private party value was about $28K. But then I hear people on here picking them up for about $21K. Now I certainly don't consider Edmunds to be the pricing bible, but to be off by 25% seems excessive.

So either their pricing is way off and these cars just took a nose dive in value (which the sales guy says will never happen when selling you the car - "amongst the best resale" they always say), or as gs300awd said the members here have a secret source for half-price Lexuses...

i think this model depreciates drastically, because I checked kbb( kelleys blue book) and my car is worth like 20,000 with 37k( no navi, has parking sensors)

they fix my rattles last month, i hope it is gone

i saw it at the dealer yesterday..curious how it drives on the highway

i paid 30,000, it had 9,000k

Any knows where to get these tires cheaper than the dealer price, I paid $1000 for two tires with installation :(

My car had the same problem, I had it serviced at two different Lexus dealerships on Long Island. They told me to bring it in when the light is off. I told him, It will turn back on by time I brought it in.
