What do you want to do with the car?

Cheap tyres are cheap for a reason - and one day will bite you hard when you least expect it.

£50 tyres are going to be bobbins mate - go for some toyo proxies, I can recommend the Continental ContiSport II's - they grip they don't wear too hard - they will last and you wont end up up-side-down in a ditch.

You will get what you pay for ultimately - expect to replace them after a few thousand miles.

Oh and if you're looking for centre caps for 18" TTE's and you got them from eBay there was a thread on here about them and they looked a bit dodge - have they turned up yet? I could be wrong mind.

Seriously though fella - don't skimp on tyres, you've got a Lexus, not a 1 litre F Reg fiesta. What is the speed rating on the cheapo's you're looking at?

Sorry if I seem like I'm ranting fella - just trying to help you out here. :winky:

thanks for your advise, this has helped alot, yeah i`m better of getting good tyres than cheap, also i was thinking of ge the car lowered, any advice on springs???

hiya, ive got a lexus IS200 sport and its up for service 80K, and lexus in birmingham told me it was a major service ad its gonna cost me £443.00, ......so what you are saying is if i tell lexus birmingham to do the basic service and get any other work done from a independant i would still have the lexus stamp in the service book plus all the work is done???

have you got any day time pictures? thinking of getting them too but would like to see how they look in the day
