It is getting near to replacing the tyres on my IS200, I currently have the Bridgestone Potenza RE040 that the car came with, (second set I might add).

I have been to the Mytyres Website and have compared (by clicking on the tyre test link) the Potenza RE050 with the RE040 and they seem a better all round tyre. Has anyone got these on their car and what do you think of them?

I'm also changing tyres very soon. Running on RE040 at present but like you thinking of the RE050 as they do seem to have a better write up. Looking at recent threads though the Toyos seem to be highly recommended so I'm really not sure which way to go at the moment.

Ill tell you what not to get,went for full set of uniroyal rs1 tyres,they are supposedly good in the wet,just before the nurburgring trip,they are awful.Problem is the doctor did my geom properly and now there gonna last ages
