I would dare to disagree on that statement... we were rated worst streets in the US, 2nd only to Boston! Anyway, it's not completely out of the question... just wanting to do other mods first, though...

Oh yeah, the tire guy was complimenting me yesterday on how wide the new tires are. He happened to mention that these tires are wider than a stock Maserati's tires! Those are normally 235 F 265 R... I got 10mm on a Maserati!

I used the Sewell price with the "ClubLexus" code and gave it to my Lexus dealer for them to match... I'm sure you could try the same!

Got my tires on today.. Would have put on my F-Sport suspension too if the UPS didn't delay my Tein silencers.

I'll take more and better pics after I throw up my suspension...

Personally, I went with 265/30 in the rears and it seems to fit just right.
