I have a 2000 RX300 and am going to need tires in about 5000 miles. Any
suggestions for the best performance for highway miles. Currently have
Bridgestones on it and am happy with them but will consider any other
brands..

Also, anyplace better than Tirerack to buy them?

I have a 2000 RX-300 and switched to Michelin Cross-Terrains at 25,000 because
the OEM Goodyears were frightening in the rain. These are great all weather
tires, quiet, good grip and I've always had good wear from Michelins. I bought
them at Tire Rack, who dropshipped to a recommended local installer and saved
$240 bucks over local purchase from the same installer. I highly recommend
Cross Terrains.

I too have a 2000 RX-300 and have been amazed that we have gotten 50k
miles on the original Goodyear Integritys,...but they are scary on
anything but dry pavement.
I am about to buy a set of Michelin LTX M/S when they go on sale at
Costco next week. They are generally reported to have not only excellent
tread life, but very good traction. I'm planning to upsize from the
225/70R16 size to 235/65R16 as well.
