Default Tires Hankook or Bridgestone?

hey whats up guys. I have a 13 lexus gs350 f sport & im in need for some new tires. Just dont know which one to pick. The stock tires are 235/40/19 & 265/35/19. Since both brands dont have that those tires specs. i have to go with 245/40/19 front & 275/35/19. with the new tires imma get.

My question is how would those new fitment fit with the stock rim? Also im debating over the Hankook Ventus v12 evo2 & Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Position.

Any memebrs here tried either of those tires? whats your input on them? Thanks!

We have tried both and you can really go wrong with any of those but I would recommend Bridgestone Potenza S-04. They have overall better performance
We can also help in getting them and choosing the right ones at your budget. We have the lowest prices guarantee. Feel free to give us a call or PM for pricing. We always have them in stock and ready to ship or for local pick ups are welcome..

Why not Michelin Pilot Super Sports? I think they come in those sizes.

I'm a Michelin fan but between the 2 you posted I'd do the Bridgestone. Hankooks IMO are crap.

You guys are $800 more expensive than Tire Rack for a set of Michelin Pilot Super Sports... does that "lowest price" include cutting you prices in half?

Michelin Pilot Super Sports are the way to go. I'll probably get a set when I need tires, the factory Bridgestones that are on it now kinda suck.
