Default F Sport Tires

Just picked up a 2016 RX350 F Sport 20 inch rims. Rear tires are ordinary Bridgestone and front tires are Bridgestone Econia H/L 422 plus. Does this sound right?

I just picked a RX350 FSport on June 18, manufactured in May, 2016. All four tires are Bridgestone Ecopia H/L 422 plus.

If you just picked up a new RX you should have four of the same brand and model of tire.. There shouldn't be two Bridgestone Ecopia H/L 422 plus on the front, and two Bridgestone "xyz" on the rear. Double check and if this is the case bring it back to the dealer.

Absolutely not!

There's a 422 and a 422 plus. Someone posted a picture of the two tread patterns. They are very similar but different. I suspect there are differences in construction as well.

My F sport 2 also came with Bridgestones and the dealer swapped out another set of rims/tires with Michelins.

At best the four tires should be the same regardless of tire manufacturer.
