Default Michelin Hydroedge

Hey guys, on Tirerack, the only size they have for the Michelin Hydroedge 17's are 225/55TR17. Will these fit on my stock chrome 17's? How will it look? I have an 02 GS430.

Thanks

yes they will fit, but i think you're better off with a different tire... maybe the pilot sportII or pilot exalto a/s

P235/45R17 pilot exalto a/s are good tires...

Michelin hydroedge is a great tire for a minivan; not a Lexus.
Fixed

My wife's minivan had them, then exchanged them for Michelin ComforTred's.
