Keep Bridgestone's or swap out for Michelin's
Wanted feed back to see what others that have some miles on the Bridgestone Er33 tires think about them? I'm thinking about dumping them for a set of Pilot Super Sports?
Thoughts?
Any one want the Bridgestone's If I decided to swap out?

I also want to swap the Bridgestones for the Michelins, but kind of a waste and hassle to sell them. I'm just as conflicted as you.

Depending on how much and how you drive, those ER's won't last long. Best to swap out now, and be able to get a little something for them in the Craigs List or ebay world to offset the new purchase.

Get the Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires and you will be much happier. Much better lateral grip and more traction in the dry, wet.

I'm still wondering why Lexus decided to equip the F-Sport models with the Turanza ER33s instead of gripper Potenzas (especially with all the test models being used for class comparisons in car magazines)?
Was Lexus trying to achieve a similar 'fun factor' like Toyota did by equipping the Scion FR-S with low grip Primacy tires?

I'm selling my set for $700 in Sac...but really only looking for $500-$600. They are an $1100 tire off Tire Rack shipped. I absolutely hate them though and love Hankook V12's on these cars. I think Michelin and Bridgestone are a major rip off for their performance vs. longevity. I took mine off the morning after I got the car. My wife, who drives like a grandma, got barely 15,000 miles on a set of ER33's on her IS-C...they were literally tearing from the inside-out.
