Something to think about given the weight of this vehicle.

From the Lexus email annoucement:
[1] 19-in performance tires are expected to experience greater tire wear than conventional tires. Tire life may be substantially less than 15,000 miles, depending upon driving conditions.

[2] High-friction brakes require periodic inspection and measurement as outlined in the Warranty and Services Guide. The pads and rotors are expected to experience greater wear than conventional brakes. Pad life may be less than 20,000 miles, and brake rotor life may be less than 50,000 miles, depending on driving conditions.

Here are some photos I found, taken of what I believe to be the LS Sport...wonder perhaps Lexus China calls it the "Vertex Edition"?
