    Default New tyres

    Need to get some new tyres for the Lexus, the fronts are 225/45R17 W90 and the rears 245/45R17 W95.

    I'm looking for premium tyres that are quiet and have a good all-round grip any particular brands to be considered or places to purchase them from?

    Thought about the Neuton 5000's that we all rave about on here?

    I can highly recommend Uniroyal Rainsport 2's. Best tyres I've ever had.

    Some unusual sizes and load indexes
    Are those non-standard wheels?

    The W rating is not a big problem the 90 and 95 load index is a little more elusive. As stated though not readily available an XL rated tyre such as Neutons would certainly be very quiet and comfortable and far cheaper than the Bridgestone's

    I have not used that particular Bridgestone tyre but am a big fan of the company in general and use the Bridgestone ER300 myself. Certainly not the cheapest but excellent grip, particularly in the wet.

    As winter is coming have you thought about all season tyres rather than summer tyres?
