This vehicle can be equipped with either run−flat
tires (RFT) or standard tires. You may continue

A “RFT” or “DSST” mark is molded on the sidewall of the
run
−
flat tire.

run
−

If you have a flat tire, you have to take a different action
depending on whether the tires are standard tires or
run

Run−flat tires characteristics:
The vehicle with run
−
flat tires helps you to continue
driving for up to 160 km (100 miles) at the moderate
speed and do not ever exceed 90 km/h (55 mph) even
with a flat tire. After such usage, the tire must be
replaced. If you are not sure, consult your Lexus dealer.
If you have a flat tire, decrease the speed and drive at
lower speed to reduce the extent to which the tire is
damaged.
However, in some conditions (such as at high
temperatures), you could not continue driving for up to
160 km (100 miles).
The use of non
−
genuine wheels may prohibit optimum
performance.
The run
−
flat tires equipped on this vehicle are ones
dedicated for GS430/300. Do not use them on another
model.
Do not mix run
−
flat tires with standard tires.
The tire warranty book covers the detailed information
on run
−
flat tires. For details, see the tire warranty book.
