Do you put winter wheels / tires on your Lexus?
Just curious how many of our members do something special for the winter months.

Nope,
I don't have the room, nor want to incur the expense of 2 sets of wheels & tires. What I will be doing is putting the very best all season tires available for my 2001 ES (in that case they are the Goodyear Triple Treads - H speed rated, good for 80,000 miles). If the weather is so horrendous outside, I will use common sense & not venture outside & risk cracking the car up in the first place or pulling off the road if I was already out in the stuff.

this is going to be my first winter with our gs, and it's also the first RWD car i've ever driven... so this is going to be fun.
