Tire question
Hello Everyone,
I recently purchased Michelin Primacy tires for my 2013 es300h. They are the MXM4 255 55 R17. On the lexus site, it mentions that the tire load should be 94V and the car originally came with 93V. I had the new tires put on today and after I left the dealer, I noticed the tires are 93V. I have a call into Lexus to figure out if this is correct but is this any issue? Should I request the 94V's.
Thanks.

It's really nothing to worry about.. the 93 or the 94 is a load designation..
and the V designation is a speed rating. V rated tires = up to 149 mph .
Hope this helps.
