Any recommendation on the summer tires? My stock tire is Yokohama BluEarth EA51, I have no idea of what is it, I have been using Michelin PSS on my F30 BMW, it has excellent dry and wet performance but the ride comfort and road noise is terrible not sure if this is because of BMW poor noise isolation. But I am just not sure how is it compared to the Lexus stock tire in terms of noise and comfort level. (Being a owner of IS250, I dont have any requirement on performance :P )

But you'll want to lower your car regardless.

I do like those tires but man are they weak... I broke the sidewall on 3 different tires over the course of ownership having those with the dreaded sidewall bubble.

Not really aftermarket
They're not really aftermarket... But they're not really stock either. It was either these or some 57xtremes and I opted for a forged, subtle OEM look.

I'll get some more shots and post 'em up when I can. That's all I've got at the moment.
Thanks, man I really fell for them when I saw them. It's not lowered yet. I'm actually happy with how the rear sits stock... but the front looks pretty awful high so I'm either going to get some springs that are lower in the front like Hotchkis (though they seem to be nonexistent) or wait and buy coilovers like the J5s
