Michelin Primacy 3ST
Brand new tyre on the market makes zero noise and amazing grip ... Makes the oem dun lops seem like tractor tyres ... All the other michelins mentioned here are old technology . I've driven LS on all sorts of tyres and these are nothing short of amazing ..

Best tyres
I have a 2008 Ls460 Dealer is telling me I have outer bald spots on 2 tires and the other 2 are near replacement worn. I only have 17K miles and have been putting on winter tires from Nov to March since I bought the car. I asked them why they didn't notice the wear in Nov and let me drive the snows for six months with poor alignment. they had no answer.
Anyway they only carry 2 tire brand the veranza stock tires and Toyo versado lx. What do you guys suggest I do?

Michelin Primacy 3ST brand new tyres that blitzes eveything else . Super quiet and amazing grip . I've driven Ls with many different tyres and nothing comes close . I found the cheapest price and my dealer matched it . I would never use a tyre shop again . Car was washed and I had a free brand new loan car to drive all day (IS 250) all for no cost and not having to hang around a dirty tyre shop for 2 hours !
I see you are from Australia. The only reference I could find to this tire is from Michelin Singapore. It may not be available in the US in our size (Tire Rack and Discount Tire don't have it).

Looks like I am going a bit of a different direction.
Going to try the Kumho Solus TA71 in a 19".
Current tire is a Dunlop SP Sport Maxx.
Have 2 of them already on my 1990 LS and like the results.

Well ... I'm still rolling on my Maypops. I think I just crossed 24k miles this weekend and the son and I used at as a BMX tool down to Tampa and back (900+ mile round trip).. It was a helluva nice ride. But everything else was inconvenient. Had like a 15 year old kid bump the car with his bike as he was carrying it. I was like "dude ... really?" So, no more LSBMX.
There's a guy I work with who says he may be able to get me a Pirelli discount as Pirelli is a ccustomer of his. We shall see. I'm still gonna limp it to 25k.
