Bridgestone doesn't make all seasons for the GS
There was a Brudgestoe rep at the GS performance drive who indicated they don't supply all seasons to Lexus for the GS and I guess that's why the luxury cars had Dunlaps.

Then how come I have those garbage bridgestone turanza el400-02 all season tires on my f sport awd? Its feels terrible and maybe an afterthought. I am getting muchelin primacy mxm4 place on my car this week. Luxury versions come with these top rated tires according to titerack.

I am just telling you what he told me. He said they only sell summer tires to Lexus. Maybe your car was to be sold in a warmer market?

I have Turanza all-season's as well on my F-Sport AWD. And it looks like all the posters are from MI, NY, and ON, so the Northeast.
If anyone replaces their all-season's and notices a better ride (less choppiness namely), please let me know. I'm "ok" with my car, but wouldn't mind upgrading.

I am replacing the Bridgestones to the Michelin Primacy MXM4 all seasons this Tuesday because of this annoying choppiness, flat spottings, and rough ride over bumps. Here is why. The Turanzas are cheap OEM tires made for Toyotas, Honda Civics, etc and they beefed up the side walls of these Standard Touring tires to make it XL (extra load) with 3 polyester sidewalls compared to standard Michelin tires with 2 polyester sidewall plys which contributes to the firmness of these junk tires. My Michelin Pilot Sports a/s, exaltos a/s tires all have only 2 layers of polyester sidewalls and are SL (standard load) tires which will have a much less harsher ride. I know that from experience and from having those runflats on my BMWs before this car.
