I am trying to get new tyres for my Lexus RX300 2002 with 17 inch wheels. The only ones appear to be Dunlop SP and I am not happy with the ride and handling. Are there any other tyres that can be used or can I change the tyre width from 225.

The Dunlops are the only thing available in that size at the moment , as someone else pointed out changing the size is not a good idea really. As a guide you can buy them for £96+vat

Fitted them on mine about 3 weeks ago. Only cost me £53 each. Well happy, saved a fortune and no difference i can tell to the originals. I will say though i only drive the Lexus a couple of times a week and dont abuse it when i do, there may be others on the club who disagree. The guy i bought them off was on ebay and i can highly recommend him. He has another set for sale but i notice his prices have gone up by 4 quid per pair. £110 for two £220 for 4.

Hi, The price of Kumho will come down again in about a week, the increase was forced on us by Kumho. How are you getting on with them for grip?
