Is it normal to have to replace a rear wheel bearing on a 2006 IS350 with 83,000?

I would say no that's not normal but it depends on driving conditions and habits. FYI this should probably be in 2nd gen IS section

Thats what I thought. I'm an easy driver. Had an independant mechanic take a quick look, that was his opinion. Goes into Lexus this week, so at least will be repaired soon. I don't know what else it could be. It's a thump thump like a flat tire and the feel of the steering is off when turning. Thx. Also, anyone reccomend an agressive enough all season tire for a New England weather. Obviously, this car does not belong in the snow, lol, but we had a fast surprised storm last year and I got stuck. My son has now inherited the beater car. This is my only one, so I need to be prepared. Thx.
