I went with the Falken since it's "suppose" to adjust to the camber wear some what. If money is not an issue for you, I'll def. get the Bridgestone RE960AS. IMO, the road noise on the Falken is kind of loud comparing to Bridgestone RE960AS on my stockers.
I will be installing my wheels with Toyo T1R's next week. I have IS350 Prokit also. With stock wheels/tires, I see significantly less gap on rear wheels compared to the front and it is hard to visualize the rear gap end up being too much after the new setup. Is it because the rear tires are more stretched than the front? What about getting 285/30/19 vs. 275/35/19 instead of 275/30/19. Do you see any potential problems such as rubbing? Thanks.

i don't want to give up my multi-function display, very useful.
If i buy the TMPS from dealer, then i don't need it to reprogram right?
but the sensor must cost alot
"check system" will stay on forever until you get the new sensor programmed. If you buy a new set of TMPS from the dealer, you'll still need to get it program, since your ECU only recognize the serial number from your original sensors. The only way to save yourself this money is to use your stock ones.

with 275 in the rear, it is actually stretching a little bit. I honestly don't think you'll have problem with either one 285/30 and 275/35. Whatever you do just don't get the 275/30 because of the uneven dropped look.

wow, even if i don't install the sensor?
i was hopping the "check system" only comes in once in awhile....so i can still use the multi-function display somehow...
so even if i have 2 sets of sensors, 1 for my winter tire, 1 for the new LM rep, i will still need to get it program from the dealer once i mount the other set?

I'm not sure if you'll have to get it reprogram when you which wheels. maybe they can store more than a set of sensors, but you'll definitely have to get the new sensor program in. You can still use your display, but after a couple second it'll just jump back to the "check system" warning.
