Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
Where should I check the original tyre size for my Lexus IS?
Look in three places: (1) the sidewall of the existing tyre, (2) the placard inside the driver's door frame, and (3) the vehicle handbook. The driver's door placard is the official OEM specification, and the sidewall confirms what's fitted now.
Can I downsize from larger wheels on my Lexus IS?
Some trims of the IS can be downsized to a smaller OEM-approved wheel, which often gives better ride and lower tyre cost. Lexus usually publishes approved alternative sizes — check the handbook before changing wheel size.
Are Japanese-domestic tyre sizes the same as UK fitments for the IS?
UK-market Lexus IS cars often use slightly different wheel sizes from Japanese-domestic models. Stick to UK fitment data — confirm the tyre size on your specific car's sidewall before fitting.
How long should tyres last on the 2013-present Lexus IS?
Typical UK tread life on the Lexus IS is around 20,000-40,000 miles depending on tyre brand, road conditions and driving style. Heavier trims tend to wear faster.
Are run-flat tyres needed on the 2013-present Lexus IS?
Most 2013-present Lexus IS cars were supplied with conventional tyres and a spare or repair kit. Only fit run-flats if your specific car was originally specified with them and has tyre pressure monitoring.
