Hello all

First let me tell you I have been on this site for 10 minutes and fixed a few things that bugged me (seat belt buzzer being #1). This site is AWESOME.

I do have a few questions though after not finding the posts on the forum already.

1. I have an IPhone 3G, on the bluetooth it says i have to "transfer my phone book" I dont think IPhone has this feature is there any other way to put contacts in? (manual does not explain)

2. Like I said i just bought this car "used" of course. The tires they have on it are 225/50/17 Nexen tires (never heard of) are these tires horrible or something. Because i hear a WHOLE LOT of road noise. (what is a good tire for the money if these are horrible tires)

Thank you and I look forward to all of your input you are willing to give up.

1) i don't know about iphone in particular, but overall i think the "transfer phone book" feature on lexus is pretty lame. i don't know of a lot of phones that can do that job successfully...

2) no idea on the tires

nexen tires can be pretty crappy, they must be very affordable tires....I had a set that was super loud, nexen 5000s i think they were, anyways, lots of good tires out there, check the tire and suspension section of the forum

I went to a local Goodyear shop today and the Service Manager said its 100%the Nexen tires make the road noise. He was explaining that its was very loud for 2 simple facts
1. Cheap horrible tires.
2. He said the tread pattern has big gaps in the design, thats why it sounds almost like a 4x4.

Only thing driving me crazy since i spend most the day in my car on the phone is the phonebook deal. I don't understand why you can't manual put in contacts.

Thank you all for your input so far.

Congrats on the 300, as far as the phone book transfer goes I have no idea for the iPhone, its worked for my LG Prada and Samsung Omnia. For your tires, yea, they are crap. If you want some nice tires with a quality stock ride then get a size 245/45/18 or 245/40/18. Anything from Falkens to some Goodyears will do you fine

Just a quick question on tire size. I have 17" rims not 18" rims. Should i stay with 225/50/17?

Thank You.

Oh yea, duh You have the 17's. Yea, that is the stock size. Just get a better tire, and youll be golden

Have an iPhone 3G myself. You would need another BT phone to transfer in. I used my old Moto KRZR to get it in.
