The noise just sounds like generic road noise rpm has no affect but i guess the fast you go the louder it get until a certain point in which it stays the same which is around 45. Slight vibration in the wheel @ 75+ also

tread looks even. The brand is named Potenza. I'm guessing its a combination of the tires being low profile and maybe something else. Brakes seem a little weak but from what I understand the gs400 has underpowered brakes as is.

Also is it just me or do these cars suck at braking? Considering doing a ls430 brake upgrade like now lol..... If they usually have decent braking then I'll just buy new pads but if not, I may consider the supra upgrade as well for 1200
Thanks for all the nice words! I was thinking about coilovers and springs but those will be after wheels and tires and the rest of the mods get done that I want. Definatly in the mix though.

I was always satisfied with my car's braking, tires make a huge difference. Mine stops noticeably quicker on 20's than stock wheels. I think the LS400 brakes made a difference in braking feel but it's debatable whether there is actually shorter stopping distance. They look alot better though!
I'd rethink the suspension last modding approach if I were you, the car is gonna look even more 4x4 if you put wheels on it with stock suspension; a nice drop makes the car look much more polished and flow so much better.

I will probably slap some lowering springs on there but as far as coliovers i will probably hold off since I might put her on air. still not sure but either way the suspension will be played with.
Gas was 3.71 a gallon when i filled up on sunday night. Also the tank wasnt completely empty, went right when the gas light came on.
