2002 Lexus GS300
Stock suspension


Reason I am buying new rims/tires is due to all my blowouts and bent rims from the awful Boston roads with 19" Rims and Very low profile tires

I'm looking for low to moderate priced tires, all season, and preferably road hazard protection.

Seems like the ContiExtremes would work well and they aren't too expensive ($130-145/tire), but the TireRack sales guy told me these wouldn't fit the rear.

I'd like some opinions on tire sizes and possibly a suggestion on tire for Boston roads.

Thanks,
Adam

^agree with Neo. you need your fronts in the 40 series. from your post, it appears you've incurred many 'blowouts' and gone through many 'bent rims'?

why dont you just put your stocks back on with the 45 series?

Well over 2.5 yrs I've had to purchase 3 new rims and 2 new tires (19s which don't have road hazard warranty) and these are only used during the warm months here.

Personally not a big fan of my stocks and all the stock tires needed placement, so I chose to get a nice looking rims for cheap ($560) to replace my stocks and was hoping to get some decent tires that were less low pro than my current 19s and had the road hazard warranty.
