The tires wear evenly. I keep the air pressure in them at manufacturer's recommended; 30 lbs. Right now the tires are anywhere between 2/32's and 3/32's.
Since there are limited choices of tires that will fit this car, I want to check to see if anybody has had any experience with brands other than Michelin and Bridgestone.

Just as an FYI, I checked some other websites that discuss excessive tire wear and Lexus isn't the only one that has problems. Toyota and Honda Hybrids seem to be the ones most written about. One person recommended Nokian WR; anybody ever hear of them?
