Both Bridgestone Potenza RE050a's and Michelin Pilot Sport 2 (PS2) are OEM spec for the IS F. 1 in 10 IS F's come with the PS2's.

You're pretty lucky then.

**Just a fair warning to everyone that reads this....you are NOT going to get a free set of Michelin PS2s from Lexus Customer Care just because you saw this post.**

It is the Lexon front lip. I ordered mine from Clark at Vip Auto Salon (clark@vipautosalon.com). He color match painted it for me and had it delivered really fast. He is a great guy to get to know for anything you need for the F
