Hey Everyone!
Has anyone has used Nitto Motivo Tires on their Lexus IS350 in Florida weather? Any comments or suggestions?
Thanks!

I used to have those on my Infiniti G35 coupe. 245/40/19. They were honestly really decent tires. My only complaint with them was the insane amount of sidewall rebound.

Thank you for your honest opinion. This is exactly what I'm looking for.

It's just really hard to argue with the 60,000 mile warranty lol. They had great ride comfort, dry grip wasn't anything too exceptional but did okay in the wet too. I was pretty confident in their grip overall.

But like I said, that sidewall rebound was stupid. A quick lane change and you'd feel the back end do a slight shimmy before settling out.

The ride is good but not the best handling tires due to a softer sidewall. Traction and braking were okay......they're decent mid-range tires but I wouldn't use them for any sort of prolonged spirited driving. I know a guy who had them for about 1000 miles and took his TL for an autocross track day - destroyed them.
