2016 RX350 Tires

Asked by Guru1BBDC Sep 03, 2019 at 12:16 PM about the 2016 Lexus RX 350 AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Costco Tire is stating I can put Michelin Deep Tread 255/50 R20 tires on my car with no issues.  The O.E.M. tires are 235/50 R20.  Are than any negative consequences in doing the wider tire?  The 255/50 R20 DT has a deeper tread than the OEM tires.

Wider tires may not be as good in snow and they hydroplane easier but if they are winter rated tires with a good wet traction rating I would not worry.

My comparison only shows a 0.7" difference in height.
