Tire Profile Change
I have 2005 RX330 with 55,000 miles and need new tires. My original equiped tires were low profile which had a disapointing firm ride. I am thinking of replacing with standard profile. Has anybody done this and were your more satisfied? Thanks.

I run 35 PSI in my Bridgestones, but I like the stiffer ride it provides and have no problems on the roads here in FL. When I go to PA I drop a few PSI due to the bad roads there.
The original base tire size was 225/65R17. Would require you to purchase new wheels in addition to new tires.

I replaced the stock Michelins 235/55/18 with these Kumhos. Quieter and cheaper though I can't say that the ride is softer. Again, the PSI has an impact too and I prefer a higher PSI. Better on the tire, car, and pocket.
