Default ES 350 tires

I bought ES 350 2013, starlight black color and 17 inch 10 spoke tires.

Sometimes i feel that the tires are too noisy and you can hear the road noise more compared to the last generation ES. Is it only me or some one else has felt the same. Mine comes with Yokohama tires. I am based in Riyadh - Saudi Arabia.

Swap them out to Michelin Primacy tires and the noise will go away.

When I bought a 2010 RX 450h a few years back, the salesman was adamant to sell the car with Bridgestone tires. He nearly blew the sale, because of it - 35k miles later, and those Michelin tires look new (okay, some wear) and are still quiet.

On the new ES300h, I was happy to see Michelin Primacy MXV with the "green X" for better roll resistance - and these are quiet with excellent wear rating.

Try to demand Michelin.
