I know of several IS owners where the dealer replaced all Dunlop's wtih Bridgestone's and it completely remedied the problem, ask 800 Lexus about that! Good luck and keep us posted! 
. It is worth to call the 800-Lexus to complain if someone has the same problem.

Lexus corporate told me to bring it back to the dealership, because the technician "couldn't replicate the pulling." So yesterday I brought it back... This time, however, I told them that I WANTED TO BE IN THE CAR when the technician "test drove" it. Sure enough, we drove a couple of miles, and I demonstrated to him how the car pulls to the right, and even on roads that are slanted to the LEFT, the car drives STRAIGHT... 
They're working on my baby right now, (spent the night at the dealership) and I'll post what the final resolution is, if there is one...

Well, I got my car back last night and I’m happy to report it drives STRAIGHT 
I have no idea what they did, because the service form is written in “Toyota-ese” – here’s what it says, maybe someone can translate this:
I’d like to know what TSIB ST1004 says…
