Default Stock Tires

My 2010 IS250 AWD still may have its original tires at 40000 miles and they are ready to be replaced. What is the brand and style that the vehicle is sold with new? Thanks!

If you have the originals you can just look at the tire right? Also you can go to the tire racks website, they list the original tires I believe.

I'm not sure if I have the original tires, that is what prompted my question. I'll check tire rack.

I think it's pretty well settled that you do not want to get another set of the OEM tires. Whether the Dunlops or the Bridgestones, they are more expensive, and rated lower, than many other good choices. Definitely check out TireRack.com; look at the surveys.

If you have 40,000 miles on your car, your car may already be on its 2nd set of tires....

Get yourself the Pirelli Cinturato P7 All season with Low Rolling Resistance for better gas mileage!

Or the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 for performance!
