Found a great deal on tire rack for 2008 LS600 hl. only $628 for four, incl shipping
I have two 2008 LS 600 HLs.
Both had bridgestone turanza EL42 tires. These tires don't seem to last very long. utqg was 320
I have to replace all 8 of them.
For one, I am using winter tires for now and i will buy in spring.. I am almost tempted to buy another set of the RS-A2 tires!
I bought 4 Qty. P245/45R-19 Goodyear Eagle RS-A2 utqg:440 (would last longer!)
$628.94 including shipping! Delivery was next day to Milwaukee!
These good year tires were about half the price of the EL42s. The dealer scared me that RS-A2s would be loud and noisy.. but they seem to work fine. In fact, my driver, who picked up my car from the dealer, after installing these tires said.. "wow, the car runs great on these tires.. what are they?".. Of course, I shall wait to see if they become noisy after a few weeks!
Tires to avoid: 245/45ZR-19 Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3.. Great looking tires but the were simply horrible.. I don't recall the details but they were very bad.. Noisy and actually caused vibration (something to do with their very unique treat pattern).
I don't remember much about these.. 245/45R-19 Yokohama AVID ENVigor . they were cheap ($800 for four) but I don't remember whether they were good or bad! I wish I did.. Has anyone used these exact tires? I seem to have a negative recollection about these also.. but I am not sure..

another great deal at tire rack..
4 Qty. P245/45ZR-19 Pirelli P Zero Nero All Season
$723.30 (including $50 shipping!)
I noticed that these tires were rated high by consumer reports. So I ordered these for my 2nd car. Currently, it has snow tires.. I bought the pirellis anyway, because they had a special price.. I won't know how they ride, for a few more months..
The goodyear RS are working fine.. only a few hundred miles on them, though!

I think they have recommended installers - not very expensive.. I have not tried them.. Typically, I have the tires shipped directly to Lexus and have them install - only $100 for lexus to install a set of 4.
