I just replaced my Dunlop run flats earlier this week. The tires had about 21K miles on them and I could have gone another 5k or so more. I couldn't stand the harsh ride of the tires anymore and replaced them with Bridgestone Turanza LS-V tires. The Bridgestone's are much smoother but not soft, and are much quieter too. Now my Lexus rides like a Lexus.

My dealer is changing out the run-flats. I don't know what Michelins to get. I'm told that the Pilots are noisy.

ps2's are the best in my mind. . had them on one other car and I love them. The bridgestone comparable ones are good too, just your preference.PS2's are more $$$ than the pole positions which also have a 30 day free trial...... but I still like Mich. PS2's more.

Jace, my first thought the was the ps2, also. I was told to go online and pick the tires I want, so that's what I'm doing. Thanks for the input.
