Wont hurt to ppf those rockers if not already. Will help on any kick up sand road dirt with the wider wheel base in play.

 

I apologize if it previously stated but I can not find what the OEM tires were on a 2021 with the Touring package. I am looking at one now that has relatively new Bridgestones on it but can not see the date codes or model of the tire. Thank you for your help.

 

245/40 and 275/35 if it came with 21"

245/45 and 275/40 if it came with 20"

 

Thanks--if it came with the Touring Package, what would the model of Bridgestone's be? My dealer is not being very responsive re: which Bridgestone's they installed when servicing the car for sale.

 

maybe look at used cars of the year with low mileage to find ur answer,

 

When they wear out, NRF's Michelin Pilot 4S or AS

 

My 2023 came w Bridgestone Potenzas S001L . Good tires, but I bought wider Vossens and put on Michelin AS.

Thank you for the details!

 

My 2021 came with Bridgestone Potenzas S001L as well. They are run flats. Saved me when I hit a nasty pothole, though would recommend the Michelin's as well.
What I noticed is that the tire pressure on the Bridgestones roses much faster vs. the Michelin's when driving. Might be a side effect of the run flat sidewalls.

 

My 2023 cabrio came with Bridgestone Potenza run flat's, too. With less than 8K miles on the clock, I've had to replace two of the four already...right rear tire had a nail in the sidewall (that couldn't be repaired ) and two weeks ago the right front tire 'exploded' when I hit a 6-inch-deep pothole @ 65 MPH in the middle travel lane of I-40 in Durham, NC. Thank God the 21" wheel was OK (Lexus told me a replacement is $4K) and the only thing needed was a replacement tire + front end alignment. I'm seriously considering swapping out the run flats for Michelins later this Summer (and getting a spare tire kit).

 

Are the Michelin Primacy Tours subpar? I'm looking for all-season non-runflat tires for my MY2023 OEM wheels, and they are the only ones I have found.

In your opinion what improved going from the Bridgestone to the Michelin?

 

For me a quieter tire AS4's, Longer wear time.

 

I wondered the same thing. A while back, I noticed a Canadian forum member installed them. I wonder if he'll see this and comment how he has fared. The only difference I could discern is that the Primacy only has a "V" speed rating (up to 149mph) and since the max LC mph is 168, they won't be listed by any tire manufacturer for it.
But my question is since I won't be driving over 100mph, does it matter? The only other choice is installing the wrong size front tire (255s) which I know a lot of guys do without any trouble. However my Lexus Dealer refuses to sell 255s to me. They say I'm on my own if there is a transmission, odometer, speedometer, etc warranty problem.
P S I have a 2024 LC with 21" wheels, but I just noticed you have a 2023 with maybe 20" wheels? So you would have more choices?

 

Definitely positive attributes. Better ride quality?
