I need to replace my tires
I currently have 49,985 miles on my 2006 IS250 AWD.
The tires are the OEM Bridgestone 245 45 17R, RE092. I really dont like the tires and want to get differenent tires.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

You got close to 50k on your first set of tires? I got a little over 30k on my stock OEM tires.
Well, in any case, don't get Goodyear Eagle F1 All Seasons... I'm at 25k with less than 5k left. They were great in th beginning.. but 20k in, they got really loud.
all this is on a RWD though.

Honestly, I'm not sure how you managed to get almost 50k miles on your OEMs, but good for you! What exactly do you want to improve on your next set? Better handling? Better noise/comfort?
I assume you are looking for performance all-season tires that might handle better than your OEMs, but can give you high-mileage (~40k+). The ones I've used and come recommended (tire rack, CL research) are: Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus, Continental ExtremeContact DWS, Pirelli P Zero Nero M&S, Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS. Much easier to find tires in your size and the IS350.
I currently have the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus, and they are excellent all-season tires with good grip, a comfortable ride and no where as noisy as my summer OEM tires. I'll probably get 40k miles out of them (at 34k right now).

keep in mind his location, i am guessing winter tires are used. so chop that number in half for mileage on the "summers" so 25k. correct me / apologies if i am wrong.

I have read reviews about the Michelin Pilot A/S Plus and will probably get them this weekend.
