Default Tire recommendations

Need 18" tire recommendations for IS350. Willing to sacrifice a little performance for gas mileage and durability. Thanks in advance!

I've always gotten the Continental Tire Extreme Contact DWS. They have worked out well for me and have amazing ratings on TireRack.

I have been running Michelin pilot super sports and am fairly happy with them. I am on my second summer with them, not sure how long they will last. They are more performance oriented, you would probably be happy with the Continental DWS.

RWD 350 running BF Goodrich G-Force Comp 2 A/S...

Awesome tire. It was these or the DWS. These have amazing grip hanging on dear for life in the corners or from a launch. At 15kmi they show no wear. Time will tell. Tested to cars speed limit and they are extremely stable and predictable. Great in the snow too!
