Default LS460 Tires

I am trying to choose between three tires for a new set of rims for my LS460. Which of the three in the attached link would be the best?

I know that some of you noted that the LS460 road noise was somewhat attributable to tires. Would you steer clear of any of these?

You have some really different types of tires here - the F1 is an ultra high performance tire while the Bridgestone is touring rubber.

So the first factor you need to consider is how you drive, or what you expect from the tires in terms of wear, ultimate grip, wet/snow performance, etc.

For example, I wouldn't get the F1 for lots of highway driving, or if you want or need good wet or snow traction, nor would I get the Turanza for track use (okay, I'm exaggerating here, but you get the point).

The Goodyear or the Yoko's will give you the best performance and softest ride, as well as wet or snow traction. The BS's will last longest, but at a small cost of comfort and performance.

I have just replaced the original rims with the snow tires (Blizzaks) mounted with the teleios rims with all season Turanzas. I love the ride the Turanzas provide. They are also very quiet especially when compared to the snow tires. The trip to Detroit tomorrow should be a lot of fun.
