Hi Bruce,
I don't have my LS anymore, but I used to run Bridgestone Turanza ER300's in the size you're talking about and they were pretty quiet, gripped well and were a decent price when on one of those Buy 4 Pay 3 deals. ER300's are what suits Euro luxury sedans, so probably what you're looking for. I think there is a newer model too called Turanza Serenity Plus and those are on 4 for 3 promotion at the moment. https://www.bridgestonetyres.com.au/...kBusOnly=false

Sorry guys they were too dear the buy 4 pay for 3 doesn't work out like that, so I went to Jax and got Pirrelli P6's and a 4 wheel alignment for $580.00. They are great and I will recommend the dago tyres

Anything European works for me. I.E. Continental, Michelin, Pirelli. I have Michelin Pilot Sport 3's on my Mk1 currently and I can't fault them.
